Understanding COVID-19: Symptoms, Risks, and Prevention

COVID-19 is a respiratory illness caused by the coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, and spreads easily from person to person through "community spread". This can happen when an infected individual sneezes, coughs, or talks nearby, or if you touch a contaminated surface.

Common COVID-19 Symptoms include cough, fever, chills, congestion, body aches, nausea, and potentially loss of taste or smell. Symptoms can be mild, severe, or entirely absent (asymptomatic), and may appear anywhere from 2 to 14 days after exposure.

Who is at Risk? Anyone can contract COVID-19, as it is highly contagious. However, the risk of becoming seriously ill or dying increases significantly for individuals with certain medical conditions and those aged 65 and over.

If You Are Sick with COVID-19:

• Stay home, leaving only to seek medical attention.
• Isolate yourself from family and friends.
• Monitor your health closely.
• Seek immediate medical attention if you experience trouble breathing, blue lips, or constant chest pain. (AFC Urgent Care is for urgent but non-life-threatening conditions; for life-threatening emergencies, call 911 or go to an emergency room.)

Protect Yourself and Others:

• Wear a mask over your nose and mouth.
• Wash your hands frequently with soap and water for 20 seconds or use a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.
• Maintain physical distance, staying at least six feet or two arm-lengths apart from others and avoiding crowds.
• Consider getting a flu shot and staying vaccinated against COVID-19.
• Get tested if you suspect exposure or have symptoms.
• Travel informed about current guidelines.

Comprehensive COVID-19 Testing Services in Austin, TX

AFC Urgent Care Austin William-Cannon offers on-site COVID-19 testing to provide you with quick results and peace of mind. Whether you are experiencing symptoms, returning from travel, or have been in contact with someone who has COVID-19, we are here to help.

We offer two types of COVID-19 tests to ensure accuracy:

1. Rapid COVID-19 Nucleic Acid Amplification Test (NAAT/PCR): This test provides highly reliable results on the spot.
2. RT-PCR COVID-19 Test: This is a more comprehensive test, with results typically available online within a few days.

By performing both tests, we aim to provide you with the most accurate results possible without significant delay. We also test for Flu A/B and strep if you present with similar symptoms, ensuring you get the correct diagnosis and treatment.

Getting Tested:

• Walk-ins are welcome for COVID-19 testing; no appointment is necessary.
• Many patients are in and out in minutes, though wait times may vary.
• Cost of Testing: This depends on your insurance coverage. Many insured individuals can get tested at no charge. For the uninsured, AFC offers competitive cash pay prices; please contact us for details.
