Fayette County to begin free COVID-19 testing

Starting June 30 and “until further notice,” the Fayette County Health Department is offering free drive-through COVID-19 testing 9 a.m.-3 p.m. every Tuesday in the parking lot of the administrative complex at 140 Stonewall Ave. West in Fayetteville.

Pre-registration is strongly recommended and can be done using a form at covid19.dph.ga.gov/; participants must provide an email address to receive results. The screenings are available to any Georgia resident regardless of symptoms, although the pre-registration form asks about health issues, possible exposure to others with COVID-19, and occupation/caregiver status.
