Coronavirus (COVID-19)

At the University of Maryland Medical System (UMMS), we are committed to offering our patients and communities what they need to protect themselves from COVID-19.

Use these resources to help you avoid getting sick, recover quickly from COVID-19 if you do get sick, and manage any long-term COVID-related health issues.

Getting Help for COVID-19

If you or someone you care about might have COVID-19 or wants to get vaccinated, the following information can also help determine your next steps.

Vaccines or Boosters

• Visit vaccines.gov or contact your primary care provider or a pharmacy for a vaccine or booster. Check out our information on the recommended vaccines for winter to learn more about getting the latest COVID-19 vaccine.

COVID Testing

• For testing, go to the Maryland Department of Health COVID testing information or contact a UM Urgent Care Center near you.

Treatment

• Contact your primary care provider or a UM Urgent Care Center for treatment of COVID. (If you don't have a primary care provider, you can search for an UMMS provider based on your desired office location and other preferences.)
