Pueblo County COVID-19 Drive-Thru Testing
Pueblo’s Drive-Thru COVID-19 Testing will continue through the end of the month every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Pueblo County has opened a drive-up testing site in Pueblo through June 30 to test anyone with symptoms of COVID-19 (cough, difficulty breathing and fever over 100.4 degrees).
Individuals tested must be inside an enclosed vehicle for safety. No walk-ups or motorcycles are allowed through the testing site.
All tests at the Colorado State Fairgrounds are self-administered. Everyone, including kids five years old and younger, must be able to do the test without assistance. Everyone not able to do the test without assistance will be turned away.
The site is open to neighboring counties. The first 250 individuals each day will have access to drive up testing. No physician order is required, and all testing is free.
1001 Beulah Avenue (enter through Gate 4 off Mesa Avenue and Gaylord Avenue).
When going to the community testing site at the Fairgrounds, you will be doing a new self-swab test in your vehicle. This test is less invasive, watch this video to learn how to administer the test. https://youtu.be/vsQVxsQY3jc
