Should I get tested for COVID-19?

It is recommended that people with symptoms of coronavirus get tested. If you are experiencing new symptoms that you think may be from coronavirus, let your doctor know and discuss getting tested.

You can also visit COVID-19 testing or call 2-1-1 to schedule a same-day or next-day appointment for free testing. If you have health insurance, the test site will bill your insurance for the cost of the test, but no co-payment will be collected from you.

What can I do if I get stressed about COVID-19?

When you hear, read, or watch news about COVID-19, it is normal to feel anxious and overwhelmed. It is important to care for your mental as well as your physical health. For tips on what you can do to help cope, read Coping with Stress During Infectious Disease Outbreaks.

The latest on Hand Sanitizers

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recently released a safety notice regarding hand sanitizers containing methanol. The FDA issued a warning to consumers about hand sanitizer products that are labeled as containing ethanol (also known as ethyl alcohol) but that have tested positive for methanol contamination.

FDA updates on hand sanitizers consumers should not use

Why is this dangerous?

Methanol (i.e., methyl alcohol or wood alcohol) is a substance that can be toxic when absorbed through the skin and can be life-threatening when ingested. The FDA has determined that methanol is not an acceptable active ingredient for hand sanitizers and must not be used due to its toxic effects. The FDA’s investigation of methanol in certain hand sanitizers is ongoing and updates will be posted to their website.
