Daimler Buses is to provide a Covid-19 mobile testing station to Huber Group Holding SE. The vehicle is a Setra 416 LE business from the ComfortClass serie converted at the Neu-Ulm site in only four weeks. It will be used in the coming months to test people at schools, residential care homes and companies.
The 13-metre long low-entry Setra MultiClass has a rear entrance reserved to the persons to be tested and an area where personal data can be processed and checked at a newly installed counter. The mouth and throat swab tests are then carried out in the front section of the vehicle. The bus is also equipped with an awning to protect from rain and a stationary heater. Using the Wi-Fi on-board, data from the test persons and their tests is entered into a database in encrypted form, guaranteeing results can be processed and accessed quickly. After about only 90 seconds the process is complete and those tested can leave the bus by the front entrance. The result is available within 24 hours.
The vehicle is part of the fully digitised testing process of the Huber Group, which provides safe and efficient implementation of Covid-19 testing thanks to its comprehensively networked infrastructure solution.
