Testing for COVID-19 remains an important tool to stop the spread of illness and remains a top
priority for BCPH. If you have symptoms or have been exposed to someone with COVID-19, you
should get tested. This is true even after being vaccinated as you may still be able to spread the
disease to others who are not vaccinated.
