By: Sharon Aron Baron

One of the most frequent questions we get is, “Where can I get a COVID test?” With over 1,198 positive cases in Tamarac as of July 24, residents are concerned they may have been exposed.

Thanks to The Division of Emergency Management which has compiled a comprehensive list of testing centers — many that do not require appointments.

Make sure you wear your mask, bring a driver’s license, and in some cases, be prepared to wait.
