–The San Luis Obispo County Board of Supervisors voted this week to establish a COVID-19 testing facility at the San Luis Obispo County Regional Airport (SBP). Templeton-based Nova Labs, LLC, will operate the facility, which is scheduled to open May 2.
Free COVID-19 tests are available without an appointment at several community testing sites throughout SLO County, including the San Luis Obispo Veterans Memorial Building, Paso Robles Event Center, Morro Bay Veterans Memorial Building, and Ramona Garden Park Center in Grover Beach. Testing at the airport will be available for a fee, of $100 per test, to inbound and outbound travelers, tenants, and personnel operating at SBP.
