Wawa's Lady Dunn Health Centre says guidance for testing through its COVID-19 assessment centre has been expanded.
Now, people experiencing a broader range of symptoms should contact a nurse at the centre, including those with a temperature of 37.8 degrees Celsius, a new or worsening acute respiratory illness symptom - like cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, runny nose or sneezing, nasal congestion, hoarse voice, difficulty swalling, new olfactory or taste disorder, nausea or vomiting, diarrhea, or abdominal pain - as well as new or worsening fatigue, malaise, generalized weakness or unexplained falls, a change in mental health status including confusion or delirium, the exacerbation of chronic conditions, chills, headaches, or croup.
The assessment centre's open 8:30 to 4:30 weekdays - appointments can be made by calling the Municipality at 705-856-2244, extension 244 or 246.
