(Michigan City, IN) - The Michigan City COVID-19 testing site will temporarily not be accepting walk-in clients due to severe staffing shortages and an increased volume of patients. 

Danielle Glasgow, the Emergency Preparedness Coordinator for the La Porte County Health Department, sent out a press release stating: 

"COVID-19 Testing at the Michigan City Health Department will temporarily NOT accept any walk-ins due to overwhelming numbers of patients coming in and severe staffing shortages at this time. This service will open back up as soon as they are feasibly able to do so.

 

Please make your appointment AND pre-register for your test by going to: www.coronavirus.in.gov. Please select a Community Testing Site and complete the entire registration online. This cuts down on your wait time in the clinic and drastically speeds everything up for staff during this high-volume time. Thank you!"
