Lawrence-Douglas County Public Health clinic staff are available to administer tests in the future at a drive-up site near the Community Health Facility, 200 Maine, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays.

We encourage anyone currently experiencing symptoms related to COVID-19 to contact his or her primary care physician. Always call first before showing up at a provider.

Anyone without a primary care provider can call the Lawrence-Douglas County Public Health Coronavirus hotline, 785-856-4343. The line is answered on weekends by LMH Health staff, and any messages will be returned on Monday. There are other testing options in Douglas County on weekends as well.

Potential symptoms include fever or chills; cough; shortness of breath or difficulty breathing; fatigue; muscle or body aches; headache; new loss of taste or smell; sore throat; congestion or runny nose; nausea or vomiting; or, diarrhea.

LDCPH thanks Lawrence Douglas County Fire Medical and the City of Lawrence for their partnership and assistance with offering the Haskell testing site.
