APH consolidating test sites
Thursday, February 17, 2022 by Tai Moses
Starting next week, Austin Public Health will be consolidating its Covid-19 testing sites, according to a news release. City testing teams will be moving to the Metz Elementary campus “to meet the evolving needs of our communities and in response to declining testing demand.” Covid testing will be available at Metz starting Feb. 22, Tuesday-Saturday, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sign up for testing on the APH online registration portal. The tests are provided free of charge, and no proof of insurance or residency is required. A new testing site also opened at Heritage Park in Pflugerville on Feb. 14, offering free tests Monday-Saturday, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. APH has wrapped up testing operations at the Travis County Expo Center and is expected to end testing at the Dove Springs Recreation Center this Saturday, Feb. 19.
