COVID-19 is one of the most dangerous global health crises in 2020, which is now flagged as a major public health concern in the United States. For patients, it is imperative to follow Centers for Disease Control (CDC), World Health Organization (WHO), and local healthcare officials.
AFC Urgent Care Bridgeport is here to provide you with the best sources of information from leading healthcare agencies, and frequent major media updates. Misinformation from unverified social media sources can cause patients to panic or participate in ineffective prevention methods. Use the following modules and links to learn more!
Important Update: We are actively testing for COVID-19. Make sure you call our clinic in advance to determine your best treatment option. We will evaluate you, test for influenza, and contact the Connecticut DPH if appropriate. Our provider team can collect samples and send to our third-party reference lab for testing if deemed necessary by our providers. You may also be tested for influenza at the same time. The current test results turnaround time is 7-10 days but may change in the upcoming days.
Please call in advance to alert the team!
The current CDC guidelines for testing can be found here, which are helpful for evaluating your risk of COVID-19.
However, patients that don’t meet the clinical guidelines as a likely match for COVID-19 can still be tested for seasonal illnesses. The common cold and flu have similar symptoms to COVID-19: Sneezing, coughing, and fever.
