TENNESSEE VALLEY-The Alabama Department of Public Health has set up a hotline (888.264.2256) for people who are concerned about whether they need to be tested and where testing is available.
ADPH also still recommends anyone with symptoms like fever, cough and other respiratory issues to contact their physician, rather than showing up at a hospital ER or a doctor’s office.
Drive -through sampling sites are only open to people who have been seen by a doctor and who are exhibiting symptoms of the illness.
