Loudoun County Update
  • Save Lives, Get COVIDWISE: COVIDWISE is Virginia’s official exposure notifications app that lets you know if you’ve likely been exposed to another COVIDWISE user with a positive COVID-19 test result. COVIDWISE is free to download on your smartphone and designed to completely protect your privacy. 
    • The more Virginians who use COVIDWISE, the better everyone can be informed of potential exposure, which helps reduce your risk while protecting your family, friends and community. COVIDWISE is now connected to the National Key Server, which lets COVIDWISE anonymously share data with exposure notifications apps from other states. Learn more from the Virginia Department of Health and download the app here.
  • What to Know about Variants: We hear a lot from health officials about the public health threat posed by variants of the virus that causes COVID-19. Viruses constantly change through mutation, and new variants of a virus are expected to occur over time. There are many variants of the virus that causes COVID-19, but the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says there are five variants of concern that are being closely monitored.  
    • Scientists are working to learn more about how easily the variants spread, whether they could cause more severe illness, and whether currently authorized vaccines will protect people against them. Health officials say the presence of variants makes it even more important to comply with public health mitigation strategies to limit the spread of COVID-19, including vaccination, physical distancing, use of masks, washing hands frequently, and isolation and quarantine, when necessary.
  • COVID-19 Testing Continues March 25: The Dulles South Recreation & Community Center, 24950 Riding Center Drive, South Riding will be the venue for drive-thru COVID-19 testing Thursday, March 25, 2021, 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. The tests are free and open to all.
