Texas Governor Greg Abbott has announced the launch of a new online resource for individuals to locate Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) testing sites in Texas. The website contains an online map demonstrating locations for COVID-19 test collection sites.

According to the Governor’s Press Release, the resource is a result of a partnership between the Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) and the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS).

The map, which is interactive, shows detailed information on public and private testing sites. This includes mobile, walk-in, and drive-thru locations within the state.

Currently, over 340 testing sites are listed on the map. Additional locations will be added as they become identified and available. DSHS and TDEM will update the map once sites are verified.
