MU Health Care will make temporary changes to the hours of operation for its COVID-19 drive-thru testing site. The changes this weekend are due to a combination of severely cold temperatures and a reduced demand for testing.
The site, located in Mizzou North at 115 Business Loop 70, will be open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Friday. Following this, it will be closed Saturday through Monday.
The site will be open again Tuesday and will resume usual business hours: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. Saturday.
Anyone needing a COVID-19 test over the weekend is encouraged to use Mizzou Urgent Care or Mizzou Quick Care. Appointments must be made in advance, and walk-ins will not be accepted at Mizzou Quick Care.
Anyone experiencing severe COVID-19 symptoms, such as trouble breathing, should call 911 immediately or go to the emergency department.
