New York will open 13 new COVID-19 testing sites across the state at the end of the month, Gov. Kathy Hochul's office announced Friday.
As the state is experiencing a surge in cases, these sites are aimed at providing additional testing options in high-need areas.
They will open on Dec. 29. Days and hours of operation will vary depending upon the location of the site and each will offer tests by appointment, as well as walk-ins. Upon launch, all sites will offer RT-PCR testing. Rapid antigen and rapid PCR tests will also be available within a few days of opening.
"To get through this winter surge and protect New Yorkers, we will use every tool at our disposal," Gov. Hochul said. "By mobilizing testing sites throughout the state, we will make sure testing is more accessible and convenient for New Yorkers. We will continue to expand testing availability to every corner of the state, evaluating where more capacity and additional sites are needed soon."
