Coronavirus (COVID-19) Testing Numbers at Moffitt Health Center

With the decrease in COVID cases in our area and on campus, we will no longer be compiling testing numbers. Featured below are totals from Fall 2020 through Spring 2022.

The Moffitt Health Center serves USM students, faculty, staff, and immediate family members. 

Weekly Testing Numbers - All Categories

Positivity Rate is calculated by dividing the total number of positives by the total number of tests (MHC total tests and Athletics Surveillance Tests).

COVID Testing at MHC

Testing for Current Infection or Previous Exposure

We are taking all precautions to keep our campus community—including patients and employees—safe. A facemask may be required upon entering the clinic depending on current community transmission status. Your safety and health are our priorities as we help you.

For at-risk populations and those who prefer to stay at home, telehealth appointments are also available, allowing you access to a provider over the phone.

Moffitt Health Center is Offering Several Ways to Test for COVID-19

Testing is available on the Hattiesburg campus only.

*Type of test conducted (rapid swab vs. PCR swab) will be determined at the provider's discretion based on the patient's specific situation.*

PCR Swab Test: This test is FDA approved and performed with a swab of your nasal passages to determine if you currently have an active COVID-19 infection. Most results are available in 1-3 days. Charges for PCR testing will be billed to insurance for insured patients. Uninsured/self-pay patients will be charged the day of service. 

Rapid Swab Test: This test is an FDA approved molecular immunoassay technology and performed with a swab of your nasal passages to determine if you currently have an active COVID-19 infection. Results are available same day. There is no charge to patients for rapid swab COVID-19 testing, regardless of insurance coverage.

Rapid Surveillance Testing is available for patients with NO symptoms and NO close contact exposure. 

Antibody Blood Test: This FDA approved test determines if you have antibodies to COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2 IgG). This test can show previous infection or exposure to the disease. Most results are available in 1-2 days.
