Adams County residents who do not have health insurance, and have COVID-19 symptoms, are at high risk of getting COVID-19, or suspect you have been exposed to COVID-19, can get tested through one of several mobile testing sites. Free COVID-19 Testing Site: Adams County now has a state FREE COVID-19 testing site at Water World, 8801 N. Pecos St., Federal Heights.

Immigrant Families Needing Healthcare: U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) encourages all those, including aliens, with symptoms that resemble COVID-19 (fever, cough, shortness of breath) to seek necessary medical treatment or preventive services. Such treatment or preventive services will not negatively affect any alien as part of a future Public Charge analysis. "If the alien is prevented from working or attending school, and must rely on public benefits for the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and recovery phase, the alien can provide an explanation and relevant supporting documentation," a spokesperson for USCIS said. |
