COVID-19: Protect Yourself, Get Tested Today

As COVID-19 cases continue to surge across the country and in Homestead, staying informed and taking proactive steps to protect yourself and your loved ones is crucial. The latest statistics indicate a concerning increase in infections, making testing a vital part of our collective effort to curb the spread of the virus.

• COVID-19 Numbers on the Rise

  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports approximately 19,000 COVID-related hospitalizations per week in the United States. From early August to the start of September, there was an approximately 80% increase in the weekly average.

  While vaccines have been a crucial tool in the fight against COVID-19, testing remains a fundamental aspect of early detection and containment in South Florida.

• Why Getting Tested Matters

  Getting tested for COVID-19 is about your health and the well-being of your family, friends, and neighbors. By knowing your COVID-19 status, you can take appropriate measures to prevent further transmission. Testing is a responsible and community-minded action whether you have symptoms or have been in contact with someone who tested positive.

• When to Get Tested for COVID-19

  Knowing when to get tested for COVID-19 is essential for early diagnosis and preventing the further spread of the virus. Consider the following situations:

  • Testing is crucial to confirm the infection if you develop symptoms associated with COVID-19, like fever, cough, or loss of taste or smell.
