Free COVID-19 testing in Dripping Springs

Free COVID-19 testing is available in Dripping Springs at “The Triangle,” Friday through Monday, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. until further notice.

According to Kim Hilsenbeck, Communications Manager for Hays County, county emergency management and operations personnel helped coordinate with the Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) and Curative to bring mobile testing units to Hays County.

“No county funds, other than staff time, are being used,” Hilsenbeck said.

“The tests are non-invasive oral swabs, the tests are free and open to the public, most results are expected within 48 hours. Selecting a time slot in advance is preferable but they will accept walk-ups.”

The process itself is contactless. Those looking to get tested walk up to the van and check in with a Curative team member behind the window. A test is given to the patient and then another team member will walk the patient through how to administer the oral swab themselves.
