CVS Health is expanding its COVID-19 testing program by opening 37 additional test sites at some CVS Pharmacy drive-thru locations across Florida on May 22 including several locations throughout South Florida. The openings bring the total number of drive-thru test sites to 47 across the state. Those 47 test sites in Florida are part of a total of nearly 350 locations across 14 states including Arizona, California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Texas. These sites will utilize self-swab tests for individuals who meet CDC criteria, in addition to age guidelines. Patients must register in advance at CVS.com to schedule an appointment. Patients will be required to stay in their cars for the self-administered test while being observed by a CVS Pharmacy team member to ensure it is done properly. Tests will be sent to an independent, third-party lab for processing and the results will be available in approximately three days.
