Half of Los Angeles County’s testing sites were closed Monday as a safety precausion while protests continued across the region against the killing of George Floyd.

Throughout the county, there are 36 free COVID-19 testing locations, 19 of which were closed Monday, according to the county’s website.

“There are still appointments available at the regional testing sites, although I do know that a few have closed because of the civil unrest,” L.A. County Health Director Barbara Ferrer said Monday. “But you can go onto covid19.lacounty.gov/testing to find sites that are open, and to make an appointment online.”

The only site that would be open in the city of L.A. on Monday was at Dodger Stadium, according the Los Angeles Fire Department. The drive-thru testing location opened last week and is the largest in the state, with a capacity to test more than 7,000 people per day.

“All appointments for both days were moved to the Dodger Stadium test site which will accommodate all Los Angeles City appointments scheduled, regardless of the originally schedules test site,” according to a statement from the department.

Kedren Community Health Center in Historic South-Central and Dodger Stadium will both be open Tuesday, Mayor Eric Garcetti later said.

He said many of the sites are closed because the testing operation is led and run by volunteers and those volunteers have not yet signed up to come back due to protests happening in the city. The fire department and volunteers from city staff, however, will continue to run the open sites.

Garcetti urged those out protesting to sign up for testing, saying they are at higher risk.

The county’s Health Director Barbara Ferrer said earlier Monday that the effect that the lack of social distancing during the protests will have on the spread of COVID-19 won’t be seen for another “three to four weeks.”

“We could be back to square one in three weeks,” L.A. County Supervisor Kathryn Barger told KTLA on Sunday as crowds gathered in Santa Monica.
