COVID-19 & RESPIRATORY ILLNESSES

• Prior to COVID-19: many hospitalizations due to respiratory illnesses cause by flu and RSV.
• 2020-2021 and 2021-2022: flu and RSV were significantly lower than usual.
• Now, we are seeing COVID-19, flu, and RSV all being spread simultaneously and at high levels.

Key Times to Test:

• If you are only going to take a single test, a PCR test will provide a more reliable negative test result.
• If you use an antigen test, a positive result is reliable, but a negative test is not always accurate.
• If your antigen test is negative, take another antigen test after 48 hours or take a PCR test as soon as you can.

There are effective vaccines and antiviral treatments for COVID-19 and flu and immunizations for RSV along with other simple ways to protect yourself and loved ones from COVID-19, Flu, and RSV.
