The Central Virginia Health District has received tests that can detect both COVID-19 and Flu (A + B) with the same specimen collection and will host three FREE drive-up testing events in the upcoming weeks at the Lynchburg Health Department, 307 Alleghany Ave., side parking lot.
Testing will take place on Wednesdays, December 14, 21, and 28 from 12:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m.
Rapid antigen test results will be available within 25-30 minutes.
Those getting tested must wait in their car for results to be delivered before they leave.
Tests are free, while supplies last, for anyone experiencing COVID or flu-like symptoms, regardless of vaccination or insurance status.
Please note: this is only a testing event and they can not prescribe treatments for COVID-19 or the flu.
