Adverse weather shutters most StarMed locations on Saturday

CHARLOTTE — For the second weekend in a row, winter weather has shuttered most StarMed Healthcare COVID-19 testing, vaccination or antibody treatment sites.

StarMed’s northwest Charlotte location on Tuckaseegee Road will be the only open site in Mecklenburg County on Saturday. It will operate from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Officials encourage patients who need COVID-19 testing, vaccinations or antibody treatment to visit starmed.care to find out the status of the nearest StarMed Healthcare location.

StarMed testing locations across the Carolinas were closed earlier this week due to weather conditions. The Onslow County site was the only exception.

Novant Heath also closed testing locations earlier this week. On Saturday, Novant had not announced any closures.
