USA Health moving COVID vaccine, testing and infusions to USA campus
A new drive-through site for COVID vaccines, tests and infusions is planned at the USA JagTran facility in west Mobile starting next week.
Beginning on Monday, Jan. 24, USA Health will see patients at its new drive-through COVID vaccine and testing site located on the campus of the University of South Alabama at its JagTran facility at 301 Stadium Drive.
For more than a year, the USA Health pandemic task force has operated a drive-through COVID testing and vaccine operation at the Mobile Civic Center in partnership with the City of Mobile. That location, now at the Civic Center’s Expo Hall, will close on Friday, Jan. 21.
Patients with appointments to receive an infusion treatment for COVID on or after Jan. 24 will be directed to the new USA campus location at the JagTran building.
Driving directions
Heading west on Old Shell Road after passing University Boulevard, take John Counts Drive, also marked as Entrance 1, onto the USA campus. Follow the road past the intramural fields to the JagTran building, which will be on the right, across the street from Hancock-Whitney Stadium. Follow the signs to select a lane to enter the bay doors.
The most convenient route to leave the facility is to exit the JagTran building, take a left onto John Counts Drive and head back to Old Shell Road. Digital directional signs also will be placed near the new testing and vaccine site to help with ease of navigation.
Since December 2020, USA Health has provided more than 100,000 COVID vaccine doses to members of the community and administered more than 85,000 COVID tests.
