Translate Update: LA County Offers Free, Same-Day COVID-19 Testing
LA County is offering free, same-day COVID-19 tests by appointment for all Los Angeles County residents, whether or not you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms. Symptoms include fever, cough, and difficulty breathing.
Priority for the same or next day testing is still given to people with symptoms, such as fever, cough, and shortness of breath. Testing is also prioritized for certain critical front-line workers who interact with the public while working.
If you or a loved is experiencing symptoms, please know the following factors do not affect eligibility for a COVID-19 test:
- Immigration status
- Insurance status
- Age
- Underlying health issues
To ensure sites can prioritize people who need it most, ONLY people who are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms AND have made an appointment, are eligible for testing at this time. We continue to build our network of testing sites across LA County, and as more sites become operational, we will let you know.
