Testing Sites for Asymptomatic Individuals

What does asymptomatic mean in terms of COVID-19? Being asymptomatic means having COVID-19 but not showing any symptoms at all. The Boone County Family Medicine Walk-In Clinic DOES NOT test asymptomatic people. You have to be symptomatic for the Clinic staff to test you.

The following businesses DO TEST ASYMPTOMATIC individuals:

• Walgreens—Individuals can register online for drive thru testing. Rapid and PCR testing are available.

• Test Iowa sites—Individuals can pick up a home test kit and mail it in or drop it off at a Test Iowa site. Locations are listed on their website.

• Gslabstesting.com—GS Labs in West Des Moines offer rapid testing. Online appointments are Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. - 6 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.
