Asymptomatic Testing
There are many reasons that you may be tested without symptoms. The most common reasons are that you're a close contact of someone that has been confirmed positive, or it may be a mission or travel requirement.
Close Contact Testing
If you are a fully vaccinated adult, and have an up to date booster you don't need to quarantine while awaiting your test results, unless the contact is in your household. Continue to wear your mask and remain cautious. Sometimes a negative initial test may end up positive a few days later.
Mission / Deployment Testing
Your test will be prioritized and run in-house if it's required for the mission. You will be able to download a copy of your results with a letter for your travels via the MHS GENESIS PATIENT PORTAL. Try to print it out and have a digital copy in hand and easily accessible.
I have since developed symptoms.
If you start to develop symptoms after you've been notified that you're a close contact, it's safe to presume you're positive for COVID. Contact the clinic, and remain isolated.
