(Updated) Governor Kim Reynolds reports four new COVID-19 TestIowa sites will open next week for those with an appointment, and one is set to close. New testing sites will become operational in Burlington, Council Bluffs, Marshalltown and Sioux Center. The site in Sioux City, which opened May 4th, will close this afternoon at 6-p.m., but other testing locations will remain available. The site in Pottawattamie County is set to open May 29th from noon until 6-p.m., but the site has yet to be determined.

The Governor had some thoughts on the virus, heading into the weekend. She said “While life is beginning to feel more normal, we can’t forget that the virus still remains in our communities. We must continue to take personal responsibility for our health and the health of others, just as you have done over the past 11 weeks. As we move into the Memorial Holiday weekend, please enjoy the weekend and the extra time with family and friends, but do so in a safe and responsible manner.”
