If you have COVID-19 symptoms, or if you have been in close contact with someone who may be positive for COVID-19, it is important to seek testing. You should get tested as soon as possible if you experience symptoms OR 3-5 days after suspected exposure — even if you don’t have symptoms.

If you have COVID-19 symptoms, call your health care provider in advance so the facility can take steps to prevent exposing others. Please do not go directly to a hospital for a COVID-19 test unless it is an emergency. Hospitals across the state are facing challenges with adequate capacity.
