Tucker, GA — The DeKalb County Board of Health announced that it will close its COVID-19 testing site at Rehoboth Baptist Church in Tucker.

The site’s last day in operation is this Friday, July 31.

A spokesperson for the Health Board said, “The contract for this site expires on July 31. Additionally, construction is about to get underway adjacent to the church property, which will significantly impact traffic flow for the site. It is not ideal, but we don’t have a choice in the matter. Several replacement locations are under evaluation and we hope to announce a replacement very soon.”

Testing is still available at the following locations:

– Beulah Missionary Baptist Church, 2340 Clifton Springs Rd., Decatur, Ga. 30034

– Former K-Mart Store Parking Lot (at I-285 and Buford Hwy.), 5597 Buford Hwy. NE, Doraville, Ga. 30340

– Greater Piney Grove Baptist Church, 1879 Glenwood Ave. SE, Atlanta, Ga. 30316

– Greenforest Community Baptist Church, 3250 Rainbow Dr., Decatur, Ga. 30034
