Listed below is updated information from Texas 2-1-1 regarding COVID-19 testing and how to timely get your results.

Drive-Thru COVID-19 Test Sites: If the test collection service type is listed as "Drive-Thru," individuals must call to make an​ appointment.  Appointments can be booked no earlier than 24 hours prior to the site opening.  For these sites, individuals must arrive and remain in their vehicles.

TDEM/National Guard Test Site: Results from TDEM/DSHS sites may take 7-14 days to be received.  If person receives a Positive test result from guard test, they will be notified by automated phone message from 512- call and text to person.  If person doesn't have text capability they can send request for Missed Test Result by email at help@txcovidtest.org.  If caller receives a Negative test result, the person receives a text only.  Person could receive an "abnormal" test result meaning there wasn't enough medium (serum/blood etc.) for the test to be conducted.  Person would need to be rescheduled for a retest.

For Results in letter format (can print or save a letter for documentation):
Go to https://results.txcovidtest.org/   Enter last name, DOB, and PIN (reference assigned for testing).  Lab results will state detected, highly detected, negative.  Then option to print a letter.  Access to letter is only available for 10 minutes, but can be printed out or saved to a computer, or take a screen shot with phone.
 
Results from other locations:​ Please contact the telephone number or online lab information provided on your testing receipt..​

We will continue to seek updates as the situation changes.
