Sharing since I’ve not seen this discussed yet on r/Portland…

Recently Center For Covid Control has come under investigation as a scam, with reports false tests, or no results returned. Important to be aware of the company’s reported issues before choosing one of these locations for a test.

Center for Covid Control operates three testing sites in Portland:

• 8409 SE 45th Ave, Portland, OR 97222

• 11305 SW Bull Mountain Rd, Tigard, OR, 97224

• 5 38th Pl, Portland, OR 97232

Examples of national news on the subject:

• Newsweek

• USAToday

Local news stories about Covid Control allegedly providing false tests, or no results:

• WINK news

• KSTP

Sharing these reports in hopes that it drives discussion, awareness, and catches the eyes of local reporters. Are the Portland locations trustworthy or a scam?
