At-home kits available on a first come first served basis
District Health Department #10 (DHD#10) is announcing that due to minimal usage, all COVID-19 Testing Clinics will close until further notice, beginning Wednesday April 26, 2023. “While the testing sites may be closing, COVID-19 is not going away. It is important that residents continue to take precaution if they have been exposed or are feeling sick,” said DHD#10 Health Officer Kevin Hughes. “To support our residents, DHD#10 offers COVID-19 at-home testing kits as an additional measure to help keep the infection rates down.” DHD#10 will continue to supply COVID-19 at-home tests. COVID-19 test kits are limited at each DHD#10 office and are available on a first come, first served basis. Individuals are asked to take one kit per person, and up to four kits per household. Test kits are also available at most pharmacies. Be sure to call your pharmacy ahead of time, as demand remains high. When arriving at DHD#10 for your COVID-19 at-home testing kits, please do not enter the lobby if you have been exposed or are sick. Please call your local DHD#10 office and someone will bring the testing kits to your vehicle. To find your local DHD#10 office, please follow: https://www.dhd10.org/contact-us/. Many COVID-19 at-home testing kits have extended expiration dates.
