Need a COVID-19 Test? Use This List to Find a Drive-Up Site Near You

January 27, 2021

If you think you’ve been around someone with COVID-19 for at least 15 minutes at a distance of 6 feet or less, you should get tested as soon as possible. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends a test even if you do not have any symptoms.

And if you don’t feel well but aren’t sure if you’ve been around someone with COVID-19? Get a test.

Until you get the results, self-quarantine at home away from other household members. That includes using a separate bedroom and bathroom, when possible.

Even if you have a negative test, you should still self-isolate for 14 days.

If you need a test, here are Hartford HealthCare’s drive-up locations. For an appointment (where possible) and directions, click here. If you have questions regarding any drive-up testing site, call 1.833.621.0600.
