A Walgreens pharmacist oversees patients’ self-administration of the COVID-19 test, which is a nasal swab. They can’t leave their vehicle or enter the store, according to information on the company’s website.
The spokesman said he didn’t have any information on whether the testing would be expanded to other stores in Sioux Falls or South Dakota.
