Connecticut Department Of Public Health Announces Holiday

Hours Of Operation For State-Sponsored COVID-19 Testing Sites

 

HARTFORD, Conn.—The Connecticut Department of Public Health has announced the holiday hours of operation for its roster of state-sponsored COVID-19 testing sites.

 

All State of Connecticut sponsored testing locations are drive-through and/or walk up and no appointment is needed. Additionally, although patients will be asked for insurance information, there is no cost or out-of-pocket expense for a COVID-19 test at all state-sponsored locations.

 

The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, cough, fatigue, sore throat, congestion and new loss of taste or smell.  You should seek immediate medical attention if you have any of the following: trouble breathing, persistent pain or pressure in the chest, confusion, or inability to wake or stay awake. There are approximately 400 COVID-19 testing sites throughout Connecticut. Information and specifics about each location—including hours of operation, whether an appointment is needed and whether the site offers pediatric testing— is easily accessible by calling 211 or visiting  www.211ct.org.
