‘Overwhelming response’ swamps COVID testing

Do not call for results, officials say

Posted

Due to the "overwhelming response" with their COVID-19 drive-thru testing site, Neshoba General is asking individuals not to call for results that can take up to four hours.

“Give our team 3-4 hours and they will contact you ASAP with the results,” a Facebook post said Monday. ‘We apologize for any inconvenience, but we are working as fast and hard as we can for our community!”

The post went to say, “Please pray for our staff, as we continue to advance the health of the community we serve by providing value-centered, excellent care!!!!”

Pre-register for a COVID screening by calling (601) 663-1221 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. M-F

Please have your insurance information available, when you call, officials said.
