DeSoto Regional Health System has announced that the postponed Health Fairs in Mansfield, Logansport, and Zwolle have been assigned new dates. The 2020 Health Fairs will be a little different this year concentrating on providing annual health screenings for a minimal price. Due to COVID-19 mandates, there will be no vendors or health booths. This year’s fair will provide free blood pressure checks and COVID-19 antibody testing, along with both and female and male panel testing for a minimal fee. Those that are planning to be tested are asked not to eat or drink anything after 12:00 p.m.
The female panel will cost $30.00 and will include CBC (complete blood count), CMP (comprehensive metabolic panel), Lipid Panel (for cholesterol levels), T4 (thyroid function test that is free), and TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone level).
The male panel fee is $35.00 and will include the entire previously mentioned test, along with a PSA (prostate specific antigen).
