COVID-19 Tests
The Emergency Department is NOT the place to get a COVID-19 test UNLESS you are experiencing breathing problems or other severe symptoms. Going to an Emergency Department with mild or no symptoms may create a long wait time for you to be seen and COVID-19 test results do not come back more quickly. Results may will take one, two, or more days.
If you think you’ve been exposed to COVID-19 and have only mild symptoms – and you do not have difficulty breathing – contact your medical provider.
