Free COVID-19 drive-thru testing site open Tuesday at Smart Financial Centre in Sugar Land
SUGAR LAND, Texas โ United Memorial Medical Center announced the opening of a free COVID-19 drive-thru testing beginning at the Smart Financial Centre in Sugar Land during a news conference Tuesday. โItโs each one of our responsibilities to make sure we donโt pass this on,โ said Sugar Land Mayor Joe Zimmerman. โWe would ask that you bring your senior citizen, ... if [they] canโt come on their own.โVaron said relatively few seniors have stopped by the other UMMC drive-thru testing site, in Houston off Tidwell Rd., which concerns him. However, he said UMMC is working on mobile testing sites that can go test people who may not be able to leave their home. UMMC plans to also start mobile COVID-19 testing efforts as soon as this week to reach seniors who are unable to leave their homes, due to their increased susceptibility to this virus, Lee added.
