New Hours Start Monday For COVID Rapid Testing In Adams County
The Adams County Health Department announced that the hours for the COVID testing site will change starting on Monday, February 8.
The demand for COVID-19 rapid testing has declined, in Adams County (which is a good thing I think). Because of that, the Adams County Health Department (ACHD) has decided to change the hours to get a rapid test done. Rapid Testing hours will now be Monday - Friday from 1 pm to 4 pm, at the Oakley-Lindsay Center, located at 300 Civic Center Plaza in Quincy.
Rapid testing will still remain free and available for anyone who lives, works, or visits Adams County. Results will be given on the same day the test is done, and results are received within 30 - 40 minutes of taking the COVID test. To make the process go faster for you, participates are asked to fill out the paperwork prior to going to the testing site. Paperwork will be available for anyone who needs it.
If you have any addition questions or concerns you are encourage to follow the ACHD on Facebook, or call the COVID-19 Hotline (217-277-3504). For general questions about COVID-19, call the Illinois Department of Public Health COVID-19 Hotline 1-800-889-3931 or email: DPH.SICK@ILLINOIS.GOV.
