Health Update: Expanded Testing at Community-Based Testing Site Continues Through April 27, 2020

Grays Harbor County Public Health and the Washington National Guard will continue to operate a drive-through COVID-19 testing site through Monday, April 27, 2020, including over the weekend.

With the continued support of the Washington State Public Health Lab, we will test all persons age 18 and older who have symptoms of COVID-19 (fever [subjective or measured]or cough and/or shortness of breath).  We are offering expanded testing eligibility at the community-based drive-through site to take full advantage of the increased testing capacity afforded by the support of the Washington National Guard.

At this time we are NOT changing Health Order 2020-04 (attached and available on our website at www.healthygh.org/covid19guidance).  Hospitals and providers should continue to provide testing to the priority populations identified in the order.  We will adjust the Health Order when the supply chain can support a sustained increase in the number of tests provided by local systems.

Please instruct patients who meet these criteria to call the Public Health COVID-19 call center. Call center staff will screen patients and schedule a testing appointment.
