The Southern Ute Indian Tribe, in collaboration with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and Veterans Affairs, held their two-day October drive through viral testing event for COVID-19, Wednesday, October 14, — Thursday, October 15. The next event will be scheduled for December of this year at the Sky Ute Casino Resort in Ignacio, Colo.
Partnerships and collaborations have made each of these free COVID-19 testing events a success, from trained professionals administering the test, to the PPE and other supplies provided to the volunteers and workers.
Southern Ute tribal elders were given priority for testing at the start of each day.
Tribal volunteers were on hand to check in participants and keep things moving throughout each day of testing at the Sky Ute Casino Resort's parking lot in Ignacio, Colo.
Security helped keep the cars moving during the two-day testing event held outside of the Sky Ute Casino Resort.
