COVID-19 Testing
Based on increasing demand for COVID-19 testing services at collection sites at its main location at 280 S. Decatur Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89107, and All Saints Episcopal Church, 4201 W. Washington Ave. Las Vegas, NV 89107, the Southern Nevada Health District has implemented an online registration-based system for people requesting testing services. The new online registration service is available in English and Spanish at www.snhd.info/get-tested.
Additional Health District and partner testing locations and dates are available on a community testing calendar at www.snhd.info/covid-19-testing-sites.
The Southern Nevada Health District follows Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance. It is no longer recommended that people who tested positive for COVID-19 be tested again. This recommendation includes employers who may have required employees be retested before returning to work. Under the updated guidance, people who had symptoms of COVID-19 can discontinue self-isolation after at least 10 days have passed since the symptoms began, at least 24 hours since a fever has resolved without taking fever-reducing medications such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen, and as long as there has been improvement in other symptoms. For those who were asymptomatic, release from isolation is 10 days from the test collection date.
