Walgreens opens new COVID-19 testing site in Dallas
Walgreens has opened a COVID-19 testing site in Dallas at 2060 S. Buckner Boulevard, Dallas, TX 75217.
According to Walgreens, the tests will be conducted outside of the store, and pharmacists will oversee patients’ self-administration of the COVID-19 test. All drive-thru testing will be conducted outside, and patients are asked to not leave their vehicles.
“I am thrilled to welcome this new Walgreens testing site to southern Dallas, and I expect that it
will become an asset to our underserved communities,” Mayor Eric Johnson said. “This site will
provide our city with much-needed additional testing capacity, which is critically important to our
battle against the COVID-19 pandemic – especially as we begin to look toward rebuilding our
local economy.”
Tests will be available by appointment only. Walgreens will only provide tests to those who meet the eligibility criteria established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Testing will be available at no cost to eligible individuals who meet CDC criteria.
To receive a test, individuals must first complete an online health assessment to determine eligibility by visiting Walgreens.com/coronavirus.
