Over 10,000 coronavirus tests have been administered through the Bowen Center site since opening on October 15th.

The free testing site was moved from the Bowen Center to the Kosciusko County Fairgrounds to help accommodate with the demand of testing. In two months, the site has completed 10,256 tests, averaging 194 per day.

Holiday testing will continue this week and next with regular hours through Wednesday, then 9 AM to 3 PM on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve and they will be closed on both Christmas Day and New Year’s Day. A reminder that the tests are free and available to anyone two years old and up, and you do not need a doctor’s referral, insurance or reside in Kosciusko County to receive the test.
