Testing is one of the most important tools available in stopping
the spread of COVID-19. That is why Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS)
has partnered with University of Miami Health System to support its efforts to
provide free COVID-19 testing to all children, ages 4-18 in Miami-Dade County. Testing
will be done through the Health System’s Pediatric Mobile Unit, which will be
available in various school parking lots over Winter Recess.
Below are
the dates and locations for the mobile unit testing, taking place from 9:00 a.m.
