All consecutive subjects coming to the 2 dedicated centers for COVID-19 screening in Clermont-Ferrand University hospital (one for medical students and one for the general population) will be asked to be included in the present study. They will be randomly assigned to either supervised self-swabbing followed by conventional swabbing led by a healthcare professional or the other way round.
All the subjects will have to complete a brief questionnaire including demographical characteristics (age, sex, height, weight, eye color), potential symptoms (asthenia, fever, anosmia…) anticipated pain and discomfort and previous nasopharyngeal swabbing experience. Pain, discomfort and overall acceptability of the procedure will be completed just after completion of the swabbing.
