County, partners provide more locations for drive-up COVID-19 testing

San Bernardino County residents who display symptoms of COVID-19 including fever, cough and shortness of breath can get tested at five upcoming specimen-collection events through the end of April. 

“We understand the high demand for COVID-19 testing in our county and we are making every effort to organize drive-through events throughout the county,” said Board of Supervisors Chairman Curt Hagman. “We are working closely with state and federal partners and exploring all avenues to increase testing capacity, despite a nationwide challenge with shortage of supplies.”

The following drive-through testing events are currently scheduled, weather permitting:

Montclair Place – 5060 E. Montclair Plaza Lane, Montclair

April 14

10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Fox Farm Lot – 41850 Garstin Dr., Big Bear Lake

April 17

10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

(Because of hazardous conditions, it is strongly recommended that only mountain residents attend the Big Bear Lake event).

Copper Mountain College – 6162 Rotary Way, Joshua Tree

10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

LoanMart Field (“Quakes stadium”) – 8408 Rochester Ave., Rancho Cucamonga
