Starting this weekend, the city of Tampa will begin to close two city-run coronavirus testing sites.
In a press release Thursday, city officials say they're closing the sites due to a decline in coronavirus cases and "the increased capability of private pharmacies, healthcare providers and home testing kits available to now meet the demand for COVID-19 testing"
The sites that will be closing:
- Feb. 12: Al Lopez Park, 4602 N. Himes Ave. (walk-up site)
- Feb. 26: Al Barnes Park, 3101 E. 21st Ave. (drive-thru site)
