- People must remain seated in their cars at a working window (window must go up and down) for the test.
- Wear a mask when interacting with anyone on site. Maintain social distance at all times.
- Be prepared to wait. Due to the demand for this service, there may be significant wait times.

Traffic Pattern
Lombard Police have created a specific traffic pattern to help direct traffic in the area. See attached map. Due to the demand for this service, we anticipate there could be significant wait times. Please be patient. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, you are urged to call your doctor or emergency department to seek immediate care and instructions.
Suspected Thanksgiving Exposure Reminder
For residents who suspect exposure on Thanksgiving Day, please note that testing within 24-hours of exposure produces a high rate of false negative test results and is not advisable. Test accuracy increases when symptoms are experienced, 2-14 days after exposure. The CDC recommends that anyone who experienced close contact exposure to COVID-19, quarantine and monitor their health for symptoms.
