The testing site is supported by Project Baseline, Verily’s initiative to track the spread of COVID-19. Tests will be available to adults who exhibit symptoms and have other risk factors. Patients must be 18 years or older and live in San Joaquin County.
Additionally, to be tested people have to sign the COVID-19 Public Health Authorization Form and Lab Consent. People will undergo a screening prior to testing to determine if they qualify. The testing site is located near the San Joaquin General Hospital.
