NASHVILLE (May 4) — Tennessee Governor Bill Lee announced Monday more than 23,000 Tennesseans have received a free COVID-19 test at 67 drive-through sites over the past three weekends, as part of Unified-Command Group’s efforts to reduce barriers and widen access to testing for all Tennesseans regardless of symptoms.
Carroll County administered 78 tests Saturday at the Carroll County Civic Center.
“Testing remains one of the most important tools for gaining more information in our fight against COVID-19, and the 23,000 tests we’ve completed over the last three weekends have provided incredibly valuable data,” said Gov. Lee. “We’re grateful to the thousands who came out to receive a test this weekend, and we continue to remind Tennesseans: when in doubt, get a test.”
