https:\/\/health.ny.gov\/facilities\/nursing\/docs\/2020-09-15_nursing_facility_visitation.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To find additional test sites nearest you, please click here. Individuals who have questions regarding eligibility or access for testing should call the New York State COVID-19 Hotline at 1-888-364-3065 or visit the NYSDOH website https:\/\/covid19screening.health.ny.gov\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Testing<\/strong>: If you are being tested for COVID-19 it is important that you self-quarantine until you get your test results whether you have symptoms or not. If you are symptomatic, meaning you are coughing, have a fever or other symptoms, self-quarantine even if you are an essential worker until you get your results back, if you have COVID-19 you may be spreading it! That means to stay home and limit contact with other people, even in your household. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reminder<\/strong>: According to Governor Cuomo\u2019s Executive Order 202.45, all non-essential gatherings of up to 50 individuals of any size for any reason (graduation parties, celebrations, weddings, or other social events at public facilities or private venues) unless otherwise designated (ex. Religious gatherings), are now allowed for those regions in phase 4. So long as appropriate social distancing, wearing cloth masks\/face coverings over their mouth and nose, and cleaning and disinfection protocol requirements are followed. \u00b7 For general inquiries contact or call the Hotline: 1-888-364-3065 or click Ask A Questionhttps:\/\/coronavirus.health.ny.gov\/form\/ask-us-a-question<\/a> \u00b7 Click here to view the interim guidance. https:\/\/coronavirus.health.ny.gov\/system\/files\/documents\/2020\/06\/interimguidance_traveladvisory.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00b7 Check with the testing site for any specific criteria necessary for testing such as illness, contact with someone who tested positive, essential worker, required for reopening \/ business, etc. Many need to have a doctor referral\/prescription. Always call first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
