Demand for Testing is Lower; Resources Redeployed to Vaccination Efforts
Milwaukee – The Milwaukee Health Department will adjust the schedule for COVID-19 testing at American Family Field (formerly Miller Park). The largest testing operation in the region will be open three days per week starting next week. The drive-through and walk-up testing facility at American Family Field will be open Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 11:00 am until 6:00 pm.
As the number of COVID-19 infections has declined in Milwaukee in recent weeks, the demand for testing has gone down. The Milwaukee Health Department continues to host testing at the Northwest Health Center (7630 W. Mill Road) and the Southside Health Center (1639 S. 23rd St.) on Mondays through Saturdays from 9:00 am until 2:00 pm.
