AHN COVID-19 Testing Schedules Released through Saturday, Nov. 28

PITTSBURGH, PA  – Allegheny Health Network (AHN) has released its latest covid-19 testing schedules for the mobile clinic operation and community sites through Saturday, November 28. Testing locations will not be in service on Thursday, November 26 in observance of Thanksgiving with all locations resuming operations on Friday, November 27.

Patients must be experiencing symptoms associated with covid-19 such as fever, shortness of breath and cough to receive a test across AHN collection sites. While the CDC recommends testing for asymptomatic individuals who may have been exposed to the virus, AHN is taking this measure to best ensure adequate testing supplies are available for those experiencing symptoms and the most vulnerable of patients.
