Temporary change in testing recommendations during this omicron surge: Click for More Information

In general, people who have symptoms should act as if they have COVID-19 and stay home (isolate) for five days rather than getting tested. If after five days, they have no fever and are feeling better, they can return to society but wear a mask for an additional five days. 
 
Most people do not need to get a test during this period of high infections and scarce testing supplies.

However, those who should continue to get a test include:

• Those with significant underlying conditions. Getting tested gives these people a chance to get treatment with the limited number of medications that work and also let them know if something besides COVID might be causing their illness.
• Elderly
• Those who work with vulnerable populations:
• Healthcare workers
• Long-term care facility employees
• People living or working in congregate settings including prisons and homeless shelters
• If you’re going to visit someone who is vulnerable (for example people over 75 years, immunocompromised, receiving immunosuppressive medication) 
• If you’ve been sick but are getting better and want to confirm you are negative
• If you’re traveling somewhere that requires a negative test
