Mobile Clinic Information
Yesterday, we had over 160 people get tested at our Oakwood location. We had a great response today here at the health department until the rain and wind blew our teams tent and they had to cancel for the rest of the day. Tomorrow, our clinic will be in Westville at Judith Giacoma. We were initially told clinics would be from 9-5, but they are actually 9-4 as yesterday they turned people away at 4:30.
Release from Quarantine and Isolation Information
On July 17th, 2020, CDC updated their isolation release to 24 hours after no fever with no medication, BUT IDPH is still holding at 72 hours. Please see the guidance on IDPH’s website. I will keep you posted if and when they update the changes. https://www.dph.illinois.gov/covid19/community-guidance/isolation-quarantine
