The two sites are located at Walker County Storm Shelter/Veterans Complex and Huntsville Memorial Hospital (HMH) Rural Health Clinic and open to the general public.  

“Curative is proud to be a crucial COVID-19 testing resource for the Huntsville community during this crucial moment in the pandemic,” said Fred Turner, CEO and co-founder of Curative. “Curative’s goal is to make testing more accessible with our easy walk-up kiosk. Our unique, self-collected oral fluid swab COVID-19 PCR test offers a painless, simple option with quick 24-48 hour results upon receipt at our labs delivered directly and at no cost to patients.”

Curative offers oral-fluid swab testing—an alternative method to nasopharyngeal or brain swabs in testing for COVID-19. The observed and directed self-collected oral fluid swab involves having the person cough first, which releases the virus from the upper and lower respiratory tract. The virus is then caught in the saliva, the patient then swabs the inside of their cheeks and the roofs of their mouths. Once complete, the patient seals their test within a secure container and returns it to a medical professional to be administered in the lab. The entire Curative test is done without having to come into close contact with others, therefore eliminating the need for personal protective equipment (PPE) changes. The sample collection process can be viewed here. 

Testing is currently available by appointment at Walker County Storm Shelter/Veterans Complex and HMH Rural Health Clinic by appointment only. Appointments are available at curative.com as well as additional information on all of Curative’s offerings.
