About Coronavirus Testing Houston, TX at My Family Doctor Houston COVID19DRIVETHRU
Due to the shortage of test kits currently available, we have a very limited supply and there are not enough kits to test everyone at this time. We will only be testing patients with the highest risk for this disease based upon demographic risk profile, symptoms, and responses to the CDC screening questionnaire. You should not visit our testing center unless your have fever and/or symptoms of respiratory illness (e.g., dry cough). Priorities for testing also include older adults and individuals with chronic medical conditions and/or an immunocompromised state that may put them at higher risk for poor outcomes (e.g., diabetes, heart disease, receiving immunosuppressive medications, chronic lung disease, chronic kidney disease). Also priority for testing are any persons who within 14 days of symptom onset had close contact with a suspect or laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 patient, or who have a history of travel from affected geographic areas within 14 days of their symptom onset.
