Wednesday, February 10th – COVID TESTING AT MURAOKA

We are pleased to announce that the next round of Antibody and Viral Testing for COVID-19 will take place here at Muraoka on Wednesday, February 10th.  Staff, students and families are welcome to attend.  Testing is voluntary and is scheduled to take place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (no appointments are scheduled during 12-1 lunch break).

The antibody test consists of a light finger prick; results as quickly as 15 minutes for those who stay around for their results. The viral test is the shallow nose swab test; results available within three-to-four business days. Learn more here: Viral Test for COVID-19

Participants have the option of only doing one of the tests or both, and they are offered at no cost (covered through health insurance or reimbursable to testing provider Kahala Biosciences under the CARES Act for those who do not have insurance). Per requests, immediate family/household members are also eligible to participate. To schedule an appointment, please click here or cut and paste the following into your web browser: https://kahalabiosciences.com/cvesd-safe/
