COVID-19 test available to students participating in recent protests or rallies

Because protests and rallies sometimes involve large groups of people congregating together for an extended period of time, University Health Service (UHS) is making available a free COVID-19 test to any full-time University student who requests it based on their participation in these recent and ongoing events.

This testing program, conducted by UHS staff for asymptomatic students, will be available for as long as UHS’s testing capacity allows; students who are having symptoms should always call UHS immediately to make an appointment to be tested. Students are reminded to wear a mask and maintain physical distancing while at a protest.

To schedule an appointment, email ldudman@uhs.rochester.edu. Testing takes about 5 to 8 minutes. You must show the ALL CLEAR on Dr. Chat Bot before entering the building. Your appointment will be confirmed by email.
