JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Sunday was the last day that COVID-19 testing was offered at the state-run Regency Square Mall site, the Florida Department of Health in Duval County said.
The end of testing at the site comes as nearly 10 million people in Florida have been vaccinated against COVID-19 and testing transitions to a locally-led effort with county health departments, pharmacies, primary care providers and local governments, according to the state Department of Health

Some people getting tested at the Regency site on Sunday had mixed thoughts on testing ending at the site.
“Walgreens is little. It’s not big. You have Publix, but they have their own daily business. They should just leave this here,” said Fredrick Okolie.
Don Andersen said: “Fine with me as long as everything can be done in an orderly manner and an expedited manner.”
While testing was available at the Regency site for the last time from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday, second doses of the COVID-19 vaccine will still be offered at the site.
