The State of Texas will be setting up a mobile COVID-19 testing facility in Paris, Texas on May 8-9 from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. each day.
“This is not the antibody test. It will be the definitive PCR test that detects the presence of the virus,” said Mayor Steve Clifford.
The tests will take place at Paris Fire Station #4 at 2010 24th SE.
In order to be screened, you will need to have one of the following symptoms:
Fever and/or chills
Cough (dry or productive)
Fatigue
Body aches/muscle or joint pain
Shortness of breath
Sore throat
Headaches
Nausea/vomiting/diarrhea
Nasal congestion
Loss of taste and/or smell
To register, visit txcovidtest.org or call 512-883-2400. You may only register 48 hours in advance. Tests will be conducted by appointment only.
“This is the test that our community needs at this time. Please do not sign up unless you truly have symptoms. We don’t want to use tests on asymptomatic people.”
