Framingham To Offer Walk-Up Coronavirus Testing
The new testing effort begins Tuesday, and will complement drive-up testing at Keefe Tech.
FRAMINGHAM, MA — A new free coronavirus testing site will open on Tuesday in Framingham, and will coincide with drive-up testing at least for the remainder of the week.
The walk-up testing will be held at Amazing Things Arts Center, 160 Hollis St., on Tuesday and Thursday from 3 to 6 p.m. The drive-up testing at Keefe Tech is set to continue through Aug. 21. The ātac testing will be handled by Fallon Ambulance, which is conducting the Keefe Tech tests.
The free testing came to Framingham as part of the state's Stop the Spread program, which has been rolled out in a handful of communities where testing rates are slightly higher than the state average.
