Testing for COVID-19 in children
Parents have questions. We have answers.
Due to the current, significant internal demand for COVID-19 testing at the hospital, Children’s Hospital’s Uptown Drive-Thru Site is not currently accepting new appointments. We will provide an update at the earliest opportunity when our testing resources at Children’s Hospital New Orleans’ Uptown Drive-Thru site can open back up to the community.
