The Windsor-Essex County Health Unit will only be following up with COVID-19 cases associated with highest-risk settings (e.g. hospitals, shelters, long-term care).
If you are unsure what your next steps should be, complete the online self-assessment.
Rapid Antigen Test kits are currently available at the front desk of both our office locations. Kits can be picked up Monday to Friday between 8:30am – 4:30pm, excluding holidays. Kits are limited and available on a first come first serve basis.
For medical or health advice, contact your health care provider or Health811 toll-free at 8-1-1. If you are having difficulty breathing or experiencing severe symptoms, call 9-1-1 immediately.
