Find Free COVID-19 Tests In Phoenix Before The Holidays Coronavirus in Arizona

PHOENIX (3TV / CBS 5) – With the holidays quickly approaching, many people are planning to spend time with close family and friends, but doctors warn you should get a negative COVID-19 test first.

“It’s not a sure sign, but if you get a negative test you should feel very confident,” said Dr Vershalee Shukla of Vincere Cancer Center.

Dr Shukla says people can get tested for free through the city of Phoenix’s COVID-19 mobile test van. The location of the van varies daily and even if you don’t live in Phoenix or don’t have insurance, you can take advantage of the free program.

Dr Shukla says they have tested 20,000 people since they started the mobile service in August. As for how often you should get tested, Dr Shukla says you can get tested as often as you like with the program.

“I recommend weekly testing,” Dr Shukla said.

CVS and ASU also offer free testing options. Visit the links below to find more information:
