Community COVID-19 testing sites for organizations and individuals
COVID-19 Testing is Critical
It is critical for organizations and individuals to have convenient access to COVID-19 testing to ensure that everyone stays healthy and informed. Regular testing can promptly identify and isolate infected people, including those with or without symptoms, so that measures can be taken to prevent further transmission.
Local Resources for Organizations
For organizations that do not have the resources to test for COVID-19 on site, the CDC recommends collaborating with community-based testing sites for a centralized testing location. SDxLabs has partnered with over 50 pharmacies in the greater Pittsburgh area to help provide better access to COVID-19 testing in the communities we serve. Samples are collected at the partner sites and sent to SDxLabs for processing.

When and how to test at a community testing site
Individuals that need to be tested should be instructed to visit the community testing site. COVID tests will be administered on-site at the community location and will be sent to SDxLabs for processing. Patients will receive a result report the following day by way of their selected method - email, phone, or USPS.
