Decatur, GA — As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread in Georgia, it can be difficult to find a reliable testing site. Decaturish has compiled an updated list of COVID-19 testing sites in DeKalb County. Currently, all of these sites are primarily drive-through testing sites.
Many COVID-19 testing sites are experiencing high volume and long lines ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday. Viral Solutions at 1995 Clairmont experienced long lines on Thursday, Nov. 19.
Cars back up onto N. Druid Hills Road at the Viral Solutions COVID-19 testing site at Decatur City Church on the corner of Clairmont Road and N. Druid Hills Road in greater Decatur around 2:30 p.m. on Nov. 19, 2020. Photo by Dean Hesse.
Some drugstores such as CVS or Walgreens also offer COVID-19 testing but have varied waiting and result times and particular qualifications for each site. You may also be able to get tested at your doctor’s office.
