Public health districts across Virginia have activated public health call centers, to answer questions and provide information about COVID-19 and related issues.

Operators are equipped with information on symptoms, how to minimize the risk of exposure for yourself and your loved ones, local and statewide conditions, testing resources and how they are used, and what to do if you think you may be ill.

You may call any of the centers, but it may be most helpful to contact the center nearest you.
