COVID-19 testing

Use this link to find a testing site near you:  Richmond and Henrico Health Districts (RHHD) Testing Info 

FREE COVID test kits are available from the front desk at the school.  Take several to be ready for the holidays.  

 

Report your at-home COVID test result!

Recently, RHHD launched a voluntary form to self-report the results of your at-home COVID-19 test. You can find that form here, or if you’ve picked up your at-home test from one of the test distribution events, just scan the handy QR code. When you submit your test results, you’ll receive an email with the most up-to-date isolation, quarantine, and mitigation guidance (should you test positive). Additionally, as the set of responses grows, this data may be analyzed to better understand the spread of disease in the region—similar to the other data sources that are monitored such as hospitalizations, ICU beds, wastewater, and others.
 
Want to make sure you’re using your at-home COVID test correctly? Check out these quick videos.
If you’re worried you may have COVID-19, making sure you get the most accurate test result possible is important. Every FDA-approved at-home test is a little different, so watching a step-by-step video to make sure you’re using yours correctly can be a huge help. The CDC has collected all the available video tutorials on their website — check them out the next time you need to test!
 
Test to Treat locations
Local community testing providers participating in Test to Treat (pharmacy referrals of COVID-19 oral antiviral prescriptions such as Paxlovid) may be found here.

Vaccination Resources

Have you gotten your Bivalent COVID vaccine?

Although infection rates have improved, COVID-19 is still here.  Vaccines remain the best defense against infection, and there are new changes to vaccine recommendation. 


The first COVID-19 vaccines and boosters were monovalent (meaning single strain).  Monovalent vaccines are no longer used.  Bivalent vaccines (meaning double strain) were recently approved for all doses for those 6 months of age and older.  


Helpful tips:

  • Adults who never received any COVID-19 vaccine may receive a new single bivalent vaccine.  
  • Children 6 months through five years of age who are unvaccinated may receive a two dose series of Moderna bivalent vaccine, OR, for children 6 months through four years of age, a three dose series of Pfizer bivalent vaccine
  • Children 5 years of age and older who are unvaccinated may receive two doses of Modern bivalent vaccine or one dose of the Pfizer bivalent vaccine
  • If you previously had a monovalent vaccine, and have not received a bivalent booster, you may receive a single bivalent booster.  
  • Those 65 years of age or older who already received a bivalent booster may receive an additional bivalent booster 4 months after the first bivalent booster
  • If you have a weakened immune system or high risk conditions, you may be eligible for a second bivalent booster–check with your doctor.
