SAINT PETERSBURG, Fla.- Due to the volume of cars waiting in line and forecasted thunderstorms impacting operations later this afternoon, the Tropicana Field testing site will be closing to new cars for the day at 12:45 p.m. today.
A list of many of those testing sites is available at:

Residents are also reminded that a negative test result only shows your status on the day you were tested. If you have been exposed to COVID-19, please follow all quarantine guidance.
Rapid testing is available at Tropicana Field, however, residents are urged to know what type of test they need before heading to the site. Many employers, airlines, travel businesses etc. require the regularly offered PCR test.
Important note: Results from the PCR test may take several days, but this test is considered more accurate than the rapid test.
Residents arriving at the Tropicana Field testing site are asked to stay in their car. Walk-ups are not permitted. A list of sites that accept walk-ups is available on the website above.
