This service is being offered free of charge to participants who are seeking COVID-19 screening.
The testing will be located in the lower level of the Choctaw Casino Parking Garage at the 4800 block of South 9th Street.
In order to be tested you must:

“We are fortunate to live in an area where our longstanding partnerships and excellent history of response have made this event possible,” said Juli Montgomery, the Bryan County Regional Administrative Director.
Upon arrival to the drive-through location, patients should stay in their car. They will remain in their car as a sample is collected.
