The drive-thru COVID-19 screening and testing sites at Brooke Army Medical Center and Wilford Hall Ambulatory Surgical Center will close on April 1st, officials announced Thursday.

BAMC launched its drive-thru site at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, where more than 76,000 people were screened or tested for the virus in the past 24 months.

“The staff worked exceptionally hard, especially during the start of the pandemic, setting up locations, equipment and supplies,” said U.S. Army Col. Elizabeth Stanley, BAMC preventive medicine chief, in a news release. “They stood firm throughout the several surges during the pandemic even when exposed to extreme weather conditions and hundreds of cars lined up in front of them.”With the site closing, screening and testing for COVID-19 will still be available.
