Minnesota COVID-19 patients can now fill Paxlovid prescriptions directly at state-run test-to-treat sites, the governor’s office announced Wednesday.
This move is expected to further streamline the process of COVID-19 care, as people can get tested, evaluated and now treated for COVID-19 in one visit.
Prescriptions are available at St. Paul-Midway, Moorhead, Brooklyn Park, Duluth and Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport sites starting on Wednesday, the governor’s office says.
Minnesotans can find information about COVID-19 testing sites and make appointments here.
Minnesota test-to-treat sites were introduced at the beginning of June.
