The Coastal Health District has scheduled additional COVID-19 testing events in several locations throughout the district. The schedule is posted after the photo below, and is subject to change based on the supply of testing kits.

The first “pop-up” testing events were held May 5th in Camden and McIntosh Counties. Each event lasted three hours, and nearly 300 specimens were collected between the two sites.

COVID-19 testing through the Coastal Health District is free and most people will qualify for a test. No appointment is needed for these mobile testing sites.

Call the Coastal Health District’s COVID-19 Testing Call Center at 1-912-230-9744 with questions. The center takes calls Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. – 7 p.m., and Saturday from 8:30 a.m. – 5 p.m.

The existing specimen collection sites in Savannah, Richmond Hill, and Brunswick will continue to serve clients from all areas by appointment only. Click here for more information about the Coastal Health District COVID-19 Testing Program.
