A 3 Hour Pop-Up Coronavirus Test Site In St. Pete

ST. PETERSBURG, FL — St. Petersburg residents can take advantage of a pop-up coronavirus testing site on Saturday.

The Florida Department of Health in Pinellas County has partnered with Pinellas County Urban League to offer this service.

Testing is free at the site located at Mt. Zion Progressive Baptist Church, 955 20th St. S, St. Petersburg.

Many residents in the area of the testing site lack access to transportation, the Florida Department of Health says, and that is a reason why they chose this location for a pop-up testing site.

Residents can either choose to be tested while sitting in their car, and those without cars can do walk-up testing, according to the Florida Department of Health.

A person does not have to show any signs of sickness in order to get tested.

Testing is from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. at each site.
