Maryland Governor Larry Hogan announced that CVS drugstores will offer drive-thru testing for COVID-19 starting Friday.
CVS will open 17 locations in Maryland, including three in Montgomery County, according to a news release from the Governor’s office.
Earlier this week, Gov. Hogan authorized pharmacies to order and administer COVID-19 tests to support Maryland’s long-term testing strategy.
The CVS testing sites will utilize self-swab tests that are sent to a third-party lab. Results will be available in about three days. Testing is by appointment only via the CVS.com website.
Patents will drive up and stay in their cars where they will be directed to the pharmacy drive-thru window. A test kit with instructions will be provided to the patient. At this time, testing is only available to patients meeting the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria.
