Up-to-date, fact-based information on COVID-19 is available from Alberta Health Services.
AHS now has an online tool to help you notify your close contacts with an automated text message if you test positive for COVID-19. The name of the individual who tested positive is NOT included in the text message. If you are a health care worker, a minor or an individual who lives or works in congregate or communal facilities, AHS will notify your close contacts for you.
Albertans outside of the three priority groups listed above who test positive MUST:
- Self-isolate
- Complete the Close Contacts Identification Guide to identify who they need to contact
- Enter their close contacts into the COVID-19 Close Contacts Tool
Testing criteria now includes different symptoms for children and youth and adults. Use the COVID-19 Testing/Online Booking tool to complete a self-assessment.
MyHealth Records is the fastest way to access your COVID-19 test results. Parents can now access their children’s COVID-19 test results in addition to their own results by signing up for your MyHealth Records account at alberta.ca/myhealthrecords.
