Drive-Through Testing

Drive-through testing is a method where individuals remain in their vehicles while healthcare workers efficiently perform medical tests, such as COVID-19 swabs. This setup minimizes contact, reduces exposure risk, and streamlines the process. Typically, signs guide drivers through a designated lane where staff collect samples from a safe distance. Once tested, individuals can continue their day without entering a healthcare facility, making it a convenient and effective way to conduct large-scale testing, especially during infectious disease outbreaks.
