In response, The Houston Health Department announced on Twitter that at least three testing sites will be closing.

  • The Kingwood Community Center

  • Minute Maid Park Lot C


Because this testing site is appointment-based, folks can expect to be notified by DAVACO, the company operating the site, for details on rescheduling.

  • Delmar Stadium


Folks who had an appointment scheduled for Saturday can expect to be contacted by Curative to accommodate clients at other sites.
