CBJ encourages weekly COVID-19 testing for certain unvaccinated groups

June 25, 2021 – News

With more than 66 percent of Juneau’s total population vaccinated against COVID-19, case count numbers have been tapering down. Where it is still spreading is among individuals who are unvaccinated. To keep track of and contain possible spread, the City and Borough of Juneau is encouraging the following groups to participate in weekly COVID-19 testing:

  • Youth under 12 and other unvaccinated youth attending daycare, summer camps, or other congregate activities
  • Unvaccinated adults who work with youth
  • Unvaccinated adults who regularly interact with tourists

To schedule a free COVID-19 test at CBJ’s Drive-Thru testing facility, register online or call the COVID-19 Hotline at 586-6000. The hotline is available 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. daily.

CBJ’s Drive-Thru testing facility is located at Hagevig Fire Training Center on 2601 Sherwood Lane. Tests are processed at Bartlett Regional Hospital and results are expected within 24 hours.

Please note: The online registration system will only allow you to pick a date for the test. After you complete the form, a COVID-19 Hotline staff member will call you to confirm a time. You can find the online registration link on the bottom of juneau.org/covid19.
