These COVID-19 Testing Sites Near Oakdale Accept Walk-Ins

OAKDALE, 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 Oakdale. Find some of those sites below:

• Stillwater (Community Site)
• Little Candidate — Rapid RX Testing LLC
• St. Paul — Roy Wilkins Auditorium
• Inver Grove Heights Armory (Community Site)
• West St. Paul — MedExpress
