“We are still seeing significant community spread of COVID-19 in our area, and testing is an important tool in identifying cases and stopping the spread,” said Dr. Davis. “We want to accommodate as many requests as we have the personnel and equipment to test.” Anyone can be tested, and there is no fee. If you believe you’ve been exposed to someone with COVID19, please remember to quarantine at home for 14 days, and schedule an appointment for testing around the 10th day. Testing cannot be scheduled more than 2 weeks in advance. For a list of free COVID-19 testing options through the Coastal Health District, visit our website at covid19.gachd.org
