"As we prepare for the holidays, I encourage everyone to test before gathering with family and friends," said Rochester Mayor James Smith. "The best gift we can give our loved ones is ensuring that we all can enjoy the holidays safely and without the fear of contracting or spreading COVID. These free tests are easy to use and provide quick and accurate results. With multiple distribution sites over a number of dates, we are making these test kits as accessible as possible."

"I want to thank Monroe County Executive Adam Bello and his team for their leadership to make these tests available," Mayor Smith continued. "Mayor-Elect Evans and I continue to discuss efforts to protect our residents and I am also grateful for his ongoing support, leadership and guidance. It takes the entire community to combat the pandemic and I ask everyone to do their part by getting vaccinated, testing before attending gatherings and masking up in public, indoor spaces. I know that together, we can finally turn the tide."
