COVID-19 Symptoms

Common symptoms caused by COVID-19 are shortness of breath, fever, dry cough and congestion. It is important to know if you have been in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19 as these symptoms can also be caused by the flu, common cold or pneumonia.

If you are experiencing severe symptoms such as severe shortness of breath, it is recommended that you seek local emergency care or dial 911. We suggest, if possible, to call your local ER to inform them of your arrival beforehand.

Who Should Get Tested?

If you are experiencing symptoms that are severe then you should seek testing. About 80% of those infected, though, will not require medical attention and should selt-isolate at home. It is important that when seeking medical attention, you reach out to your local emergency care before showing up in-person.

If you experience severe symptoms but have not been in contact with anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19 then contact us today.

COVID-19 Testing Offered in West Haven

Blood Drawing for Antibody Testing

DOCS Urgent Care of Norwalk has the capability to test to see if you have been infected by COVID-19 in the past by searching for antibodies. After blood is drawn, it will be sent to an off-site lab where they can then search for antibodies. If antibodies are found then it would tell us that you were previously infected by COVID-19.
