To expand locations where Wasatch Front residents can be tested for COVID-19, the 麻豆学生精品版 Wellness Bus has been outfitted for virus testing. The 40-foot specially-designed RV was designed to travel to underserved neighborhoods to provide health consultations, screening, and education as part of the Larry H. & Gail Miller Family Foundation鈥檚 Driving Out Diabetes Initiative. With pandemic safety in mind, regular operations at the Wellness Bus have been suspended.
