Churches to provide COVID testing in southeastern communities after Tubman Chavez center closes
[ad_1]
San Diego County will increase its COVID-19 testing capabilities in communities in Southeast San Diego, focusing on three local churches.
With the closure of the Tubman Chavez community center, churches, starting Sunday, will mobilize to provide testing sites.
The change ensures residents’ continued access to free tests. This decision will also increase testing availability by a total of five to seven days between locations.
The following sites, all located in San Diego, will provide walk-in COVID-19 testing:
The Tubman Chavez Community Center closed for good on Thursday, ahead of the groundbreaking next week for the Southeastern Live Well Center.
The center played a critical role in the response to COVID-19. Since last summer, it has provided 182,082 COVID tests and 5,705 vaccines.
Vaccines will continue to be available in the area from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, both at the Jacobs Center, 404 Euclid Ave., and at the Mountain View Cultural Educational Complex, 4343 Ocean View Blvd.
