“As we experience a surge in cases in the city, the region and the nation, we must manage our public testing resources in the most efficient ways possible to slow the spread of the virus," said Dr. Grant Colfax, director of the San Francisco Department of Public Health. "Re-allocating these testing resources to the area of the city with highest rate of infection is critical to our response to the virus.”
Officials also caution against attempting to get a test before any planned holiday travel, saying "during this current surge, city resources will not support testing for travel or visitations."
The Alemany testing site provides both walk-up and drive-through COVID-19 tests five days a week. Site hours are:
- Monday: 12:30 p.m. — 4:30 p.m.
