Press release<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Orleans County will be offering residents, who are asymptomatic (no
symptoms, not feeling sick, etc.), free drive-thru COVID-19 self-administered
rapid testing at the Orleans County 4-H fairgrounds, 12690 Route 31, Albion
(entrance to the clinic is the West entrance on Taylor Hill Rd off Rt. 31).
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The free testing will be offered from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday,
December 16.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The focus for these clinics is for those who are asymptomatic. As a reminder, for anyone who had a recent potential exposure to COVID-19, it is not recommended to be tested until at least 5 days have passed since the
exposure.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To schedule a test, please register on-line at https:\/\/on.ny.gov\/36ZqTxF<\/a>.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone needing additional help for online registration may contact the
Orleans County Health Department at 585-589-3278.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur Genesee County clinics have had exceptional turnouts and will
continue to be offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays at least through
January,\u201d stated Paul Pettit, Director for the Genesee and Orleans County
Health Departments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe anticipate that the Orleans County clinics will
continue on Wednesdays from 1:00-4:00 through January as well.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To help the process please note the following guidelines:

\uf0b7 Print out your completed forms (each person in your vehicle
should have their own form) and bring them with you to the
clinic
\uf0b7 Make sure you have a pen in your vehicle
\uf0b7 Everyone in the vehicle is to have their mask on when they pull
up at the testing site<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\uf0b7 Those who are testing could get a call fairly quickly from an unknown
number\u2026please answer the phone. Staff cannot leave messages and can only give results to the individuals tested or the guardian of minor children.
\u201cWe are working with our county partners to put these clinics on as the Health Department staff continue to do case investigations to lessen the impact of the virus,\u201d stated Lynne Johnson, Orleans County Legislative Chair. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis helps us identify those who are potentially infected and
preventing them from spreading the virus to others. This will also help lower our positivity rate. We look forward to providing this service to our residents.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
