These COVID-19 Testing Sites Near Minnetonka Accept Walk-Ins
The demand for more testing means there are fewer appointments at sites across the state, but some testing sites still allow walk-ins.
MINNETONKA, MN — Cases of COVID-19 are surging across Minnesota, especially following the holiday break. The new omicron variant spreads more easily than the original SARS-CoV-2 virus strain, prompting many Minnesotans to get tested.
The demand for more testing means there are fewer appointments at testing sites across the state. The COVID-19 testing site at the Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport ended walk-in tests due to "crowding," the Minnesota Department of Health announced Monday. The change came at the request of airport staff.
The good news is that there are still sites open that accept walk-ins near Minnetonka. Find some of those sites below:
