Testing

PCR Testing is available at El Paso ER.  Resutls are available within a hour.  PCR Testing is very accurate at picking up COVID-19 even in the absence of symptoms.

​

At home tests are useful if you have very mild symptoms or are not at risk of severe infection.  If you're unsure, just give us a call and we can walk you through the process.

Treatment

There are two oral medications approved for outpatient treatment of COVID-19.  Both are extremelty effective if taken within 5 days of symptom onset.  The earlier the medications are started, the more effective they tend to be.  

​

Please call us or visit to see if you are a candidate for one of these treatments.  This will depend on your medical history, age, pregnancy status and severity of infection.
