TOWNHOME TRASH COLLECTION – ONLY American Disposal is currently conducting an audit of trash collection services in the Townhomes.

COVID Vaccine Information
The Prince William Health District What You Should Know:
FDA Is Warning Consumers About Unauthorized AG Covid-19 Home Test
The FDA issued a warning to the public to stop using Empowered Diagnostics COVID-19 Tests. Empowered Diagnostics is recalling the CovClear COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test and the ImmunoPass COVID-19 Neutralizing Antibody Rapid Test.
These tests were distributed with labeling indicating they are authorized by the FDA, but neither test has been authorized, cleared, or approved by the FDA for distribution or use in the U.S. The FDA is concerned about the potentially higher risk of false results when using unauthorized tests, and has identified this issue as a class I recall, the most serious type of recall.

PCR test results are usually available within a few days, and are very effective in detecting an active COVID-19 infection, even if asymptomatic. The CTC will administer PCR tests to individuals 3 months and older.

5. NOTE: Some CTCs are currently managing delays of test results. ANSWER: The delays have been caused by a variety of issues that include incorrect contact information, inconclusive tests that required additional evaluation, an interface issue with the VASE+ reporting system and the weather. The VDH CTC team and its partners are currently working on the problem and have started contacting the individuals who have been impacted. Please Do not call PWHD clinics or offices for results or issues. Call the VDH call center at 877-VAX-IN-VA (877) 829-4682 TTY users call 7-1-1.
