Covid-19 Testing

If you have COVID-19 symptoms, you can get tested, seen by a provider, and receive treatment for COVID-19 – all in one place at a Test to Treat site. 

If you have a medical condition which makes you more likely to get very sick from COVID-19, you may be eligible to receive treatments.  Adults and Children over the age of 12 can receive treatments, but treatment must be started as soon as possible and within 5 days of symptom onset.
