Sublette County Public Health is excited to offer free COVID-19 Saliva Testing to ALL Sublette County businesses. We started this testing several months ago for essential workers and are happy to be able to open testing opportunities to all Sublette County businesses at this time.
This testing is FREE and is completely voluntary. This is a saliva test that is completed by swabbing your own mouth under supervision from a medical professional. Public Health is conducting testing: Pinedale Office on Mondays 1pm-4:30pm Marbleton Senior Center on Tuesdays 2pm-4pm. Results will be emailed/texted to participant.
Interested businesses, complete this online survey at https://forms.gle/dM5qKY7Vc1YvxMdf9. For more information/registration instructions, please contact Joanie Christie at 307-367-2157.
Saliva testing is one tool we can use to identify people with extremely mild symptoms or those who do not have any symptoms (asymptomatic). It is an important step to keep our community and economy open to locals and visitors. By identifying positive cases early, Public Health can quickly conduct contact tracing and determine all close contacts. In doing so, we can continue to stop the spread of COVID-19 by ensuring these people are isolated or quarantined.
This testing is for random monitoring of workers only—this testing is not for individuals that are sick. If you have any symptoms of COVID-19, please call the Sublette County Rural Health Care District to schedule testing or talk to a health care provider.
