新月直播 Coronavirus Update 10-5-20

Revised Remote Site Hours and Days

新月直播 has closely monitored the number of individuals who have come for COVID-19 screening and testing at its remote site in the Laundry Lot just west of 新月直播 Regional Medical Center. The volume has been on a gradual decline, so starting this week we have changed the hours and reduced the days.

Starting this week, and continuing until further notice, the site will be open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from, 8 a.m. – Noon.
