HERE'S THE NUMBER FOR WEDNESDAY COVID-19 TESTING IN MILANO

  County Judge Steve Young, as promised, released information Monday morning telling residents how to sign up for Wednesday morning's C0VID-19 testing in Milano. He said:

 " Free testing for the virus will be conducted this Wednesday, April 29, at the Milano Fire Station from 9 a.m. to  5 p.m. This will be mobile testing for those who have symptoms. To participate call 512 883 2400 or go on line at https://txcovidtest.org/ to register. You must register for screening to get tested. The test will be a nasal swap test and the results will be available in about 48 hours.

The tests are being provided by several state agencies and Milam County. Thanks to Fire Chief Jesse Love for allowing the use of the fire station; to Sheriff Chris White for controlling the site and to Director of Public Health Robert Kirkpatrick and Director of Emergency Management Bryan Burns will also assist with this most important project."

Young said last week he was not allowed to release the contact info any earlier than Monday morning.
