Go! Garrett County

By Garrett County Joint Information Center Team

The Garrett County Health Department received positive COVID-19 results for two additional persons, bringing the current county total positives to 51. 

The new positive COVID-19 cases include:

  • A female staff member at Dennett Road Nursing Home in her 20s without symptoms, isolating at home
  • A male in his 50s without symptoms, isolating at home

The next community testing opportunity in Garrett County is scheduled for Wednesday, August 26, from 8:00 a.m. to 12 p.m. in the parking lot between the Health Department and Mountain Laurel Medical Center at 1025 Memorial Drive, Oakland. 

This free testing will be without the need for an appointment or a doctor’s order. THIS IS NOT AN ANTIBODY TEST THAT MAY IDENTIFY A PREVIOUS INFECTION. This event is intended for persons who do not have symptoms. Persons with symptoms of COVID-19 or those who want antibody testing should contact their health care provider. 

Additional testing days are being planned and will be announced on the health department’s Facebook page and website, garretthealth.org.
