Governor John Carney | Office of the Governor | Date Posted: Thursday, December 24, 2020



WILMINGTON, Del. – Governor John Carney, the Delaware Division of Public Health (DPH), and the Delaware Emergency Management Agency (DEMA) announced the list of community testing sites throughout Delaware next week. Testing locations listed below include pop-up and Curative trailer sites, as well as community sites hosted by New Castle County.

“Testing is the best way to track the spread of COVID-19 and monitor for outbreaks. But it’s not a replacement for basic public health measures during a pandemic,” said Governor Carney. “Wear a mask. Wash your hands. Avoid gathering with friends and family outside of your household. I know this holiday season is different and it’s hard. But stay vigilant and we’ll get through this.”

DEMA has coordinated community sites this week in addition to sites at Walgreens and at various hospitals and health care locations. Delawareans can view a full list of COVID-19 testing options and locations at de.gov/gettested.

Delawareans are encouraged to check the State of Delaware’s new testing calendar for updates as more pop-up testing locations are confirmed.

Testing sites with a fixed schedule, such as pharmacies, may have different holiday hours. Please check with the testing location ahead of time to confirm availability.

In the event of inclement weather, testing location updates will be posted to the Delaware Department of Health and Social Services’ social media accounts (FacebookTwitter, and Instagram).
