The City of Somerville is hosting a pop-up COVID-19 testing site on Saturday, January 15, at Connexion, 149 Broadway, from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. 

This location will offer PCR tests to Somerville residents of all ages who are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms or who have a known exposure to COVID-19. Testing is free, regardless of health insurance or immigration status. Appointments are required. To schedule a test, visit somervillema.gov/covidtesting or call 311 (617-666-3311).  

Persons seeking tests for travel should check mass.gov/GetTested for other options. Persons who have previously tested positive for COVID-19 should not PCR test for 90 days and should therefore not use this site. PCR tests can show positive results for several months after symptoms have subsided. Rapid antigen self-tests are more appropriate for checking for return to work or to normal activities.  

 


Persons with disabilities who need auxiliary aids and services for effective communication (i.e., CART, ASL), written materials in alternative formats, or reasonable modifications in policies and procedures in order to access the programs, activities, and meetings of the City of Somerville should please contact Adrienne Pomeroy at 617-625-6600 x 2059 or ADA@somervillema.gov.
