08.01.2022 The Western NSW Local Health District (WNSWLHD) drive-through COVID-19 testing will be visiting Dubbo on Tuesday 8 September and Wednesday 9 September from 9am ...to 4pm. There are currently no known cases of COVID-19 in Dubbo. WNSWLHD has tested more than 15,471 people over the past four weeks. We need to keep testing people, so we can stay on top of COVID-19 as the general restrictions around movement start to be decreased. COVID-19 tests are always available through GPs and our hospitals. The testing service will be set up at the Dubbo Showground, enter from Wingewarra Street. The service is free of charge, and you dont need a referral or appointment to attend. Its a drive through service so you wont have to leave your car. Our staff will be able to come to you, do a short assessment and get your details, and then do a swab from the back of your throat and then the back of your nose. The tests are then sent away for analysis which normally takes about 48 hours. If your test is negative, you can request to get those results by text message even faster. People who are tested are asked to self-isolate until they get their results. COVID-19 testing is available for people who have experienced even mild symptoms that can be associated with the disease. Those symptoms include: fever, a sore or scratchy throat, a cough, runny nose, shortness of breath, tiredness and muscle aches. The symptoms of COVID-19 can be very mild, so its important that we increase our testing. While most people who have COVID-19 will recover, some people can become very sick, particularly older people or people who are already ill. Right now, our message is very simple if you have any symptoms, even mild ones, arrange to be tested.
