COVID Rapid Tests:

Posted by stephanie rogers on November 10, 2021 in News

To make access to testing more convenient for the Dal community, pilipiliÂþ»­ has collaborated with Nova Scotia Public Health to launch a self-swab COVID-19 rapid screening program for faculty, staff and students.

Asymptomatic Covid Testing Center( Dal AC Health Services-Dairy Building )

  • Open to students/staff/faculty
  • Tuesdays and Thursdays 3-4pm walk ins / no appointments needed
  • We also have available Ìýtake home self test kits- they will be under the parameters of two test kits per person per week ( Dept Health & Wellness parameter). This can be obtained through Student Success reception Monday – Friday Ìý/ 9-4pm

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, it indicates you are not positive for COVID on that day. You could still develop or be exposed to COVID-19 in the coming days.
