Testing will be available Wednesday and Thursday this week (June 17 and 18) FREE. You are strongly encouraged to get tested if you’ve been in a large gathering recently. Results will be provided to each participant and you will be encouraged to share those results with your doctor.
It is available to everyone and will be provided FREE of charge. You do not need to have symptoms. Although I do not see a Gloucester location, there are plenty nearby. List and further information from Mass.gov/covid-gettested. Some sites are appointment only, so check ahead.
If you’ve been wondering if you should be tested, this is your opportunity!
