Need a COVID-19 test before Thanksgiving? Here are some sites near Myrtle Beach.
Ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday, health experts are urging Americans not to travel or gather with family to curb the spread of COVID-19.
In South Carolina, Gov. Henry McMaster told people to “get tested before turkey,” as coronavirus cases in the state push toward 190,000. In Horry County, cases have reached nearly 13,000 and Georgetown County cases near 2,200.
As the virus spreads in the area, consider getting tested ahead of your Thanksgiving plans. Here’s where you can get tested in the area, including free tests sponsored by South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control.
