Community Labs, which performs COVID-19 PCR tests for schools and businesses, is expanding to school districts in Laredo and San Marcos.
The testing laboratory is located in the Headquarters Building, and Community Labs announced last month that it is expanding its capabilities to 50,000 tests a day, up from 15,000.
The first testing in Laredo was done at Lamar Middle School, and the Laredo ISD produced a video with school and Community Labs officials, as well as students.
The goal of Community Labs testing is to make schools “safe zones” by identifying asymptomatic cases of COVID-19.
