Where and how to get tested for COVID-19.
As the Covid-19 crisis continues, we've heard a lot of questions about how or where to get tested. Below you can find information and links to help answer these questions.
The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) suggests that you should consult your primary doctor if you have a fever, cough, trouble breathing, or other flu like symptoms that are not better or are worsening after 24-48 hours. Your healthcare provider can then determine if you should get tested for Covid-19.

As testing expands throughout Illinois, there are increased options as to where you can get a test. At some locations there is drive-through testing. Some locations require an appointment, or phone screening.
