CFVH Covid-19 Update - 2/3/22 - Discontinued Antigen Testing Services
CFVH will be discontinuing our Covid-19 Antigen Testing Drive-Up Service after Friday, February 4, 2022 due to insufficient testing supplies. We are, at this point, adjusting to our current situation but realize a quick and convenient test is valuable to our community. We are working to have an alternative service in place, but will not be able to do so until adequate testing supplies are available.
Testing recommendations can be found at the Sanders County Public Health Department website - https://co.sanders.mt.us/departments/public-health/ and are relevant particularly for those seeking testing after exposure. Note that you should quarantine, and if you have no symptoms wait until the 5th day after exposure to be tested.
4 tests kits per household from the federal government are available through the US Postal Service (https://special.usps.com/testkits). We encourage every household to order so they are prepared in case they need to test.
If you are experiencing Covid-19 symptoms and are wondering what steps to take next (make an appointment at Respiratory Illness Clinic, stay at home, go to ER)? Try our Covid-19 Nurse Hotline available Monday - Friday: 8 AM - 4:30 PM.
