Pa. Health Dept opens 10 new COVID-19 testing sites in WalMart parking lots

On Monday, Gov. Tom Wolf announced that 10 new COVID-19 testing sites would be opening across the state.

The drive-thru testing sites are located in Walmart parking lots and are available at no-cost. There are currently 19 Walmart testing sites statewide and 430 total COVID-19 testing locations, according to the Department of Health. 

“We continue to add testing sites in locations that are convenient for Pennsylvanians and increase the state’s testing capabilities,” Wolf said. “We do not want any Pennsylvanian in need of a test to have difficulty finding a location close to home for a free test.”

The nine new Walmart testing sites are in the following locations:

• Walmart Supercenter parking lot, 1887 Elmira St, Sayre, PA
• Walmart Supercenter parking lot, 1665 N Atherton St, State College, PA

Starting June 17, these sites will be open on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 7:00 to 9:00 a.m. to test up to 50 registered patients daily. Registration is required one day in advance. 

In addition to these testing sites, UPMC Northwest opened a COVID-19 testing site in Venango County, where there is currently only one other testing site.
