Testing for Essential Workers with Symptoms

The Solano County drive-thru COVID-19 testing site is now expanding appointments to include essential employees who are currently ill and whose symptoms are consistent with COVID-19 (including fever, cough, chills, and body aches). Individuals must also live and/or work in Solano County. Testing is not available for those who do not have COVID-19 symptoms at this time.

Essential employees include, but are not limited to, employees in the following settings:
• Grocery stores, food banks, restaurants, and food delivery
• Gas stations and auto-repair facilities
• Transportation providers
• Childcare facilities
• Water, sewer, solid waste, gas, and electrical operations
• Mailing and shipping services
• Banks
• Hardware stores, warehouses, and distribution centers
• Construction
• Laundry service
• Telecommunications, internet, and media services

Testing is by appointment only and a valid ID or verification of ID is needed. You can call 707.784.8655 to make an appointment. Please do not leave a message. The phone line is open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. until all appointment slots are filled. There is no cost for this testing. Testing consists of a self-administered nasal swab, and results can be expected in 1-3 days.

This testing site also continues to remain open to healthcare workers and first responders who are ill (by appointment only).

Please call the Solano Public Health COVID-19 warm line at 707.784.8988 or email COVID19@SolanoCounty.com with any questions.
