HARRISBURG, Ark. (KAIT) - The Delta Care-A-Van was in Harrisburg offering up free COVID drive-thru testing on Wednesday.
The Delta Care-A-Van has been all around Region 8 this week, visiting 9 areas including, Harrisburg, Wynne, Blytheville, and Marion.
This free drive-thru testing event was led by the Delta Population Health Institute (DPHI) and the NYIT College of Osteopathic Medicine medical students at Arkansas State University.
They aim to offer services to rural areas.
Dr. Jennifer Conner, deputy director of DHPI, says that it’s important to provide rural areas with the resources needed to provide plenty of tests. She says that the caravan is designed and fully equipped just for rural locations.
