A large-scale, drive-up COVID-19 testing site opened Wednesday at the Santa Fe Dam Recreational Area.
The site, operated by the CDC and the County Departments of Health Services, and Parks and Recreation, will be open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. for a minimum of three weeks.“The launch of this site at the Santa Fe Dam Recreational Area will bring testing resources directly to the entire San Gabriel Valley, which has experienced a high volume of cases since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic,” according to a statement from Supervisor Hilda Solis’ office.
“Many residents from this region are essential workers who work in nearby cities of Industry and Irwindale at manufacturing and industrial companies.” according to county Supervisor Hilda Solis’ office. The site, opened as part of President Joe Biden’s “Increasing Community Access to Testing” program, has a daily capacity to run 1,000 tests.
