 “We are happy to report the mobile testing site will now be supporting our Mid County Region with an additional testing opportunity in the City of Lompoc.” We are navigating our way through this surge in cases, and testing is still an important piece in slowing the spread of the virus,” said Van Do-Reynoso, Santa Barbara County Public Health Director.

“I want to thank the County for acquiring the mobile testing facility and welcome it to Lompoc. Testing is still a very important part of managing the pandemic and understanding how the virus is spreading while we work to distribute the vaccines. Please continue to wear your mask, socially distance, and wash your hands even after receiving the vaccine. If you have any COVID-19 symptoms, please take advantage of this opportunity here in Lompoc,” shared Lompoc Mayor Jenelle Osborne.
