The West Virginia Department of Health and
Human Resources (DHHR) announced additional
free COVID-19 testing events in three southern counties in West Virginia.
“We are encouraging residents
of Boone, Mingo, and Raleigh counties to take advantage of these free testing
events as the incidence of COVID-19 is increasing in the community,” said Dr.
Ayne Amjad, State Health Officer and Commissioner of DHHR’s Bureau for Public
Health. “Testing is vital if you are experiencing symptoms such as cough, sore
throat, runny nose, fatigue or body aches, or have been exposed to someone with
COVID-19.”
