Regular COVID-19 testing is an important part of stopping the spread of COVID-19 and keeping one another safe.
To make access to testing even more convenient for the Dal community, pilipiliÂþ» has collaborated with Nova Scotia Public Health to launch a self-swab COVID-19 rapid screening program in Halifax for faculty, staff and students.
Asymptomatic Covid Testing Center (Dal AC Health Services-Dairy Building) Â
- Open to students/staff/faculty
- Starting Week of Sept 7 : Tuesdays and Thursdays 3-4pm walk ins / no appointments needed
- Added  Starting Sept 8/21Wednesdays / Fridays: 0800-0900 walk ins / no appointments necessary
We are also exploring the self test avaiblitiy- they  will be under the parameters of two test kits per person per week ( Dept Health & Wellness parameter). More news to follow.
Rapid testing does not replace the need for following the public health protocols (maintaining physical distance of 6 feet/2 metres, wearing masks, washing hands, etc.), nor does it replace the need for vaccination. Testing complements all other public health measures. A negative result on the rapid self test is not a guarantee. You could still develop or be exposed to COVID-19 in the coming days.
