With COVID-19 infections increasing in Connecticut, the Town of East Hartford is advising residents of testing options and resources to identify nearby testing locations. If you are experiencing symptoms of illness that are suggestive of a COVID-19 infection, or have been informed that you were in contact with a person that had COVID-19, getting tested is important to help reduce further spread to your loves ones, especially as we plan for upcoming holiday gatherings with family and friends. Please note there's a high demand for testing because of increased community transmission and people searching for testing prior to holiday travel and events.
