Quick and easy COVID testing. A friend recommended this van to me since all the local drug stores and pharmacies were full on appointments.
Get there a few minutes early to get in line. It moved pretty quick. Try to watch the informational video online ahead of time so that you can do the test to yourself while the attendant helps the next person in line. Free Parking in the lot. In and out.
