Two new COVID-19 testing resources

'm writing to let you know about two COVID-19 testing resources.
 
Stop the Spread Initiative
You might have read about Massachusetts' new "Stop the Spread" initiative in the news [1]. This initiative is offering free testing to people with or without symptoms in eight cities and towns especially hard-hit by COVID-19: Chelsea, Everett, Fall River, Lawrence, Lowell, Lynn, Marlborough, and New Bedford. You do not need to be a resident of one of those cities or towns to get a test through this initiative. This testing initiative launches today (June 10) and will continue through August 14.

COVID-19 Test Sites Locator
Massachusetts has also published a COVID-19 test site locator [3] where Massachusetts residences can enter their location and see what COVID-19 testing sites are near them, the types of testing they do (drive-through, appointments required, referral not required, etc.) and whether the location accepts MassHealth, or offers free testing for the uninsured.
