Dedham Mobile Coronavirus Testing Open At Endicott Estate

Press release from the Town of Dedham:

September 14, 2020

In response to Dedham recently being designated as a “high risk” community, Dedham officials have partnered with the State to bring a mobile testing site to Dedham.

Fallon Ambulance will be conducting a drive-thru COVID19 testing site at the Endicott Estate, located at 656 East Street, Dedham. Testing is open to everyone, and the testing site will be available on:

• Tuesday, September 15th, from 2 to 6 p.m.,
• Wednesday, September 16th, from noon to 6 p.m., and
• Thursday, September 17th, from noon to 6 p.m.

Please enter the testing site from the East Street driveway at the estate.

No appointment is necessary. Absolutely no walk-ins will be allowed.

Testing is free, and you do not have to have symptoms to be tested. This is an anterior (short) nasal swab test. Tests will be conducted in your vehicle, and there is a four-person limit per vehicle. Masks are mandatory, and it is suggested you have tissues available as the test often results in sneezing or a runny nose.

Please continue to practice social distancing, wear masks, and follow proper hygiene guidance to help avoid spreading this disease to your neighbors, your family, your friends and your loved ones.

Please call Central Dispatch at 781-326-1212 with any questions. Thank you and stay safe!
