COVID-19 testing site
at Brookdale Community College to close March 18
LINCROFT, NJ – The Monmouth County Board of County Commissioners has
announced that due to the decline in demand, the COVID-19 testing site at
Brookdale Community College is scheduled to close on Friday, March 18.
“We are grateful to Vault Health
and Brookdale Community College for their partnership, which helped us provide a
large-scale COVID-19 testing site to our residents during a time when there was
a significant increase in demand,” said Commissioner Director Thomas A. Arnone.
“Thankfully, the demand for testing has decreased and there is no longer a need
for this site to continue its operations at this time.”
The Monmouth County Board of County Commissioners partnered with Vault
Health and Brookdale Community College in January 2022 to provide a State-funded
COVID-19 testing site offering saliva and rapid tests three to five days a
week.
“With the Brookdale Community College testing site closing, there are
still options for those who need access to a COVID-19 test,” said Commissioner
Deputy Director Susan M. Kiley, liaison to the County’s Health Department. “Residents
can visit our website at www.visitmonmouth.com
or download the Monmouth County Health Department App information about testing
and vaccines.”
