JANUARY 6, 2022 -- The highly contagious omicron variant of COVID-19 is spreading widely in Minnesota. COVID-19 testing can tell you if you’re infectious, and prevent you from unknowingly spreading virus to others even if you don’t have symptoms. 

NH+C clinics are seeing high demand for COVID-19 testing. We have limited capacity for this, and must prioritize testing for patients who have COVID symptoms or need a test before surgery or a medical procedure.

If you need a COVID test for travel or back-to-work or school, the state has plenty of community testing sites. They're fast, easy, and free. Find the site most convenient for you at the state of Minnesota database of testing locations.
