What are the considerations for who should get tested?
As a rule of a thumb, even if you are asymptomatic, a test will need to be done if you have:
- interacted with anyone (within 6 feet for 15 minutes or more) who has gone on to test positive for the virus
- had any recent travel – both domestic and international
- attended any large gathering
Beyond this, understanding when to get a test done will depend on the symptoms that you are experiencing. However, with several of the symptoms closely resembling those of a common cold, cough, or flu, it can be confusing. Our Providers at Prime Urgent Care can help guide you to the correct test based on your symptoms and/or type of exposure and answer any additional questions during your appointment.
We recommend contacting the medical care providers at Prime Urgent Care if you are experiencing the following symptoms:
- Dry cough
- Fatigue
- Fever
- Loss of taste, smell, speech or movement
- Shortness of breath
- Disorientation
- Pain in the chest
- Persistently high temperature
- Nausea
- Joint pains
- Headaches
- Redness in the eyes
- Diarrhea
Additionally, those above the ages of 60 and those with pre-existing medical conditions such as diabetes, blood pressure, obesity, heart ailments, cancer, and lung disorders automatically fall under a high-risk bracket.
COVID-19 Testing for Event Access and International Travel
The current COVID-19 pandemic has altered our lives in many ways. One of these ways has been the restriction on international travel and attending large-scale events. Travelling abroad to see family/friends, along with attending concerts, tradeshows, or business-related events has been made more challenging because of COVID-19.

We offer multiple COVID-19 testing options, and our staff will guide you to the best option.

What will the results tell me?
Results of covid testing must be interpreted in the appropriate context of symptoms of illness and exposure. This is why an office visit is required for covid testing.
A positive result typically indicates an acute illness in the appropriate context. A negative result must also be interpreted based on the context of the visit, symptoms, and exposure. In the case of a negative antigen test result (also known as a rapid test), it should be followed up with a PCR test.
If you have strongly suggestive symptoms yet test negative, follow it up with a consultation with your medical care provider and possibly repeat testing.
How will I be treated if I test positive?
Positive results with mild to moderate illness is typically treated supportively with cough medication as needed, anti-pyretics, rest, and fluids.
Patients with moderate to severe illness may require additional treatment and will likely be referred to the emergency room for evaluation and admission. Detailed instructions are discussed with patients who have positive test results.
What is the process of recovery like?
In the case of a mild to moderate illness, most patients recover within 2 weeks of symptom onset. Patients with moderate to severe illness can have a longer recovery period that may last weeks to months.
Most patients will be able to recover at home and are advised to have regular follow up with their physician.
