DHEC Holding Free COVID-19 Testing Opportunity This Week in Seneca

The South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) announced updated recommendations for COVID-19 testing. DHEC encourages anyone who would like to be tested to get tested.

In addition, DHEC recommends routine testing of individuals with known exposures or concerns about exposures. Routine testing allows public health workers to diagnose those who are asymptomatic and interrupt the ongoing spread of the virus.

DHEC continues to provide no out-of-pocket costs community testing events open to anyone who would like to be tested.

A free DHEC testing event will be held on Thursday, September 3rd from 9:30 am until 3:30 pm in Seneca at the Oconee County Health Department on N. Townville Street.
