The Maryland Department of Health advises Marylanders to stock up on COVID-19 tests for the fall and winter. During the colder seasons, respiratory viruses such as flu, COVID-19, and RSV can often present with similar symptoms, making it difficult to determine the illness without testing. Accurate and timely tests allow for proper diagnosis and treatment.  Order tests at COVIDtests.gov or check with your local health department for availability.
