IMMY Labs said in a tweet it’s working through details to restart COVID-19 testing throughout the Oklahoma City metro area. 

The company’s “tentative plan” is to reopen drive-thru testing by the end of next week, according to the tweet. Appointments can only be made through IMMY’s online portal when it opens, and appointment times are not currently available. 

IMMY CEO Sean Bauman said IMMY strives to return test results within 24 hours, and testing will be free due to its partnership with the Oklahoma State Health Department. Drive-thru vaccination pods will also be offered. 

Norman Mayor Breea Clark did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
