PEORIA, Ill. – It’s no longer needed to be open six days a week anymore.
Officials from the City of Peoria and Peoria County now say that the COVID-19 testing site in the parking lot of the Peoria Civic Center, will go back to three-day-a-week operation starting this weekend.
That means the site will now only be open Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m.
Officials say demand for the site has dropped — especially as confirmed cases have dropped significantly, suggesting the Omicron variant may officially be behind us.
