Cost of Testing We also identified a cost of testing Head Start staff and volunteers that receive an exemption from the vaccine requirement.
Across all scenarios, we anticipate that 5%
of Head Start Staff will receive an exemption, so 13,650 staff will be unvaccinated under the interim final rule. We further assume that 5% of Head Start volunteers, or about 53,050,

will also receive an exemption. We assume that only staff and volunteers associated with Head Start centers that are fully in-person or in hybrid status will be tested. We assume that Head Start staff and volunteers will be tested weekly, and that this requirement will be effective for about 4 weeks of the time horizon of the analysis, from January 31, to March 1, 2022. This effective period is

shorter than for the masking provision, which is effective immediately. We calculate that about 230,627 tests will be performed, and adopt an estimate of $10 per test. Table 20 presents these estimates and the total cost estimate of about $2.3 million. For the purpose of this analysis, we assume that the costs of testing are borne by the Head Start centers.
