Limited free community coronavirus testing is being offered at two locations in Alexandria, Virginia, on Monday.
Drive-thru testing at Landmark Mall along Van Dorn Street stopped accepting new vehicles at 1 p.m., five hours before it was set to close down. The location was one of two that planned to have free testing with no appointment or doctor’s referral required.
Tests will still be administered to those people who received a timed ticket. Walk-up testing is still available at Landmark Mall until 6 p.m. with little to no wait.
Walk-up testing is still being conducted at The Cora Kelly School for Math, Science and Technology, located at 3600 Commonwealth Ave.
Testing will be provided to anyone over 2 years old, and Spanish, Arabic and Amharic translators will be available on site. Officials encourage people to bring sunscreen and wear masks or face coverings.
