Grand County Public Health, Middle Park Health and Grand Lake Fire are suspending \u201cdrive up\u201d testing processes<\/a> outside the Grand Lake Center.<\/p>\n

According to a news release, with the one positive COVID-19 test result in the county, the agencies must increase vigilance and follow procedures set by the Centers for Disease Control and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment, including guidelines that may suspend \u201cdrive-up\u201d testing sites, such as inclement weather. <\/p>\n

The release said the Middle Park Health Family Practice Clinic at the Grand Lake Center will remain open, and patients can call health care providers at that location for guidance on COVID-19 and any other communicable diseases.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are concerned about your symptoms, please call your primary care provider for guidance,\u201d the release said. \u201cYour health care professional will work with county and state public health departments and the CDC to determine if you need to be tested for COVID-19. If you do not have a primary care physician, call your nearest healthcare facility.\u201d<\/p>\n

The forecast calls for a storm system to move over Colorado through Friday morning. It could bring moderate to heavy snowfall along with wind gusts up to 45 mph, creating hazardous travel conditions.<\/p>\n
