The Alabama Department of Public Health is partnering with Easy Testing to offer free COVID-19 testing at PZK Hall, 17933 Alabama Highway 104, Robertsdale. Testing is available August 12 and 13 from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m. and beginning Monday, August 16 from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. The testing utilizes a Yale saliva PCR test with results returned in 24 - 48 hours.

Anyone needing to be tested can pre-register at EasyTesting.com, but pre-registration is not required. No insurance is necessary to be tested or to register.

“With the COVID-19 Delta variant on the rise and proving to be drastically more contagious, this offers our community a convenient and hassle-free way to get tested,” Chad Kent, Southwestern Public Health District administrator, said. “In addition, we need to remove extra pressure of administering testing from our overwhelmed hospitals and their staff.”

Easy Testing has been operating similar testing sites in multiple locations in Maricopa County, Ariz., since the beginning of the year.
