Gustavus COVID-19 Mass Testing EventNovember 13, 2020 at noon to 6 p.m.
All Gustavus students and employees who have lived, learned, or worked on campus this semester are strongly encouraged to get tested for COVID-19 at our mass testing event on Friday, November 13 from 12-6 p.m.
The event will be held in the Lund Center forum. You must enter through the event entrance on the north side of the building by the Norelius Hall/Jackson Campus Center parking lot. No appointment is needed.
If you have tested positive for COVID-19 in the previous 90 days, you do not need to be tested again. If you are currently experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19, please contact the Health Service or go to https://gustavus.edu/healthservice/testing.php for more immediate testing options.
Students who participate will be entered into a drawing for a pair of FREE Airpod Pros and a JBL Speaker.
About the test: This is a saliva test (you spit into a small vial) that provides a 99% accuracy rate. Results will be sent via email within 24-72 hours. The test is administered by Vault Health.
