Next week, Wake County Public Health will continue to offer free COVID-19 testing at drive-thru locations in Raleigh and Wake Forest.

“We continue working to provide easy access to COVID-19 testing and will be revisiting two of our most popular sites next week,” said Wake County Medical Director Dr. Kim McDonald. “The tests are quick, free of charge and results should be back within a couple of days.”

Testing will return to the Sunnybrook Building parking deck, located in eastern Raleigh at 2925 Holston Lane, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Nov. 16–17 and Nov. 19–21.

The service will also continue in Wake Forest with our contracted partner, Radeas Labs, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Nov. 16–21 at 907 Gateway Commons Circle.

Need a test sooner? Spots are available at both sites through Saturday.
