A new drive-through Coronavirus Testing Centre has been opened
by the Gibraltar Health Authority (GHA) at Rooke on Queensway. This
is to help protect the health of our community during the COVID-19
outbreak and will be accessible to those with an appointment, after
making contact with the COVID GHA team. Only those asked to attend
will be swabbed.
The Rooke site has been chosen as it is conveniently close to
most of the population, access will be via Admiral Rooke Road, by
the Parcel Post Office.
People will be invited to drive through Rooke, where swabs will
be taken by staff in protective clothing, whilst remaining in their
vehicle. It also mitigates the risk of spread from those infected
with the virus from attending St Bernard's Hospital or the
Primary Care Centre for the test.
