Free drive-through and walk-up COVID-19 testing is available on both the North and South sides. The North Side site is located at the Custer Stadium by Barack Obama High School, 4300 W. Fairmount Ave., and the South Side site is located at UMOS, 2701 S. Chase Ave. Those with symptoms, essential workers and individuals who have recently been in larger crowds that may have made them more at risk for COVID-19 are encouraged to get tested. This interactive map from the Milwaukee County/State of Wisconsin Expanded Community Testing Initiative displays the location and contact information of 21 COVID-19 testing sites In addition, CVS Health has opened four new test sites in Milwaukee as it expands its coronavirus testing program. The services will be offered to both insured and uninsured patients, with no out-of-pocket costs.
