Free drive through COVID-19 tests

As COVID-19 cases continue to rise, Tidelands Health and SC DHEC partner to community testing events in July. The free testing events are open to everyone. Pre-screening is not required. Participants simply drive up to be tested and remain in their vehicles throughout the process. The next testing date is set for 10:00 a.m., Friday, July 17, at Myrtle Beach Pelicans Stadium, 1251 21st Avenue North, Myrtle Beach. If you can’t get tested Friday, two more testing dates are available for July.
