Sandy Springs To Host Free Coronavirus Mobile Testing

SANDY SPRINGS, GA — CORE (Community Organized Relief Effort) in partnership with Fulton County and Fulton County Board of Health will operate a free pop-up COVID-19 mobile testing site at the former North Springs Shopping Center located at 7300 Roswell Road. Beginning Aug. 24 through Sept. 18, the mobile testing site will be open Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.

Appointments can be scheduled the evening before, or the day of the appointment, by texting "COVID" to 678-802-9624. Although scheduling an appointment in advance is encouraged, test takers can also register onsite if they are unable to register in advance or do not have access to a smartphone. Testing site dates, locations, and/or times are subject to change. Visit this website the day of testing to confirm the testing site information.

If you do not receive a text or email with your results within five business days, you have the following options:

• Email fcboh.covid@dph.ga.gov with your name and date of birth
• Call 404-613-7295 Monday – Friday 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.

CORE is providing safe and exposure-free shallow nasal swab testing to anyone who wants to be tested, including symptomatic and asymptomatic people of all ages. There is no legal documentation requirement, and on-site registration is available. The organization is focused on offering services to vulnerable, high-risk communities that have been disproportionately affected by the pandemic, including low-income groups and communities of color. CORE works with community partners to ensure the health and safety of the community as the pandemic continues to be an active threat.
