COVID-19 Testing Resources
All New Yorkers should get tested for COVID19.
- Find a testing site here.
- Answer the phone if you get a call from NYC Test and Trace, which will be from a phone number beginning with 212-540-XXXX or 212-242-XXXX
NYC: We can all do our part to keep COVID-19 at bay.
- If someone is identified to be a close contact of a confirmed case of #COVID19, they must stay home for the required 14 days, regardless of a negative diagnostic or antibody test.
While the flu vaccine will not prevent COVID19, it will help lower the risk of you and your family getting sick with the flu and needing medical care.
- All New Yorkers should get the flu vaccine.
- Find a flu shot location near you here.
