LEESBURG, VA — As COVID-19 cases increase and families prepare for holiday gatherings, testing demand has increased in Leesburg. On Wednesday, Dec. 22, Loudoun County recorded 436 new COVID-19 cases. It's the second-highest single-day total since the pandemic began. Over the last seven days, Loudoun County is averaging more than 250 new COVID-19 cases per day. On Wednesday, there were 62 cases per 100,000 residents over the previous week, according to data from the Virginia Department of Health. Public health officials recommend COVID-19 testing if you have symptoms or exposure to someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19, regardless of vaccination status. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says people who were positive for COVID-19 in the last three months and recovered do not have to be tested, unless they develop new symptoms. The CDC also recently recommended self tests for those gathering with other households, especially unvaccinated children, older adults, immunocompromised people, or individuals at risk of severe disease. Antigen tests may be conducted at home with results in about 15 minutes and a virtual component so test results can be provided to VDH. A positive self-test means an individual should stay home or isolate for 10 days, wear a mask, contact a healthcare provider, and contact close contacts who may have been exposed. A negative result may mean there may not be an infection, but repeating the test with at least 24 hours in between will increase the likelihood the individual isn't infected. Below are some testing options around the Ashburn area. Residents call ahead to confirm availability and check for closings on the upcoming Christmas and New Year's holidays. More options are provided by the Virginia Department of Health's searchable testing site map.
