TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Governor Ron DeSantis announced two walk-thru testing sites coming to Broward County during a coronavirus briefing Thursday. They will be the first walk through coronavirus testing sites in Florida.

DeSantis said not everyone has a car to go to the many drive-thru sites that have been open for a few weeks, so this is a way to serve those people who may need tests but can’t get them.

Saturday they will be open for testing. “You will have 60 National Guardsman, along with Broward County Sheriff’s Office and the Florida Department of Health staff that will be operating the two sites.” DeSantis said.
