WATERTOWN â The state Department of Health has ended the free, state-sponsored COVID-19 testing program at Samaritanâs Drive-Up Testing location, 1575 Washington St.
The state cited marked improvements in public health as the reason for the closure of the testing site, according to Samaritan.
The drive-up testing site had been open to the community since July 13, 2020. Samaritan staff were able to offer 9,000 free COVID-19 tests through the state-sponsored program.
Samaritan Health said its leadership has engaged in discussions with Jefferson County Public Health officials about ensuring members of the community have access to free testing, especially those who are un- or under-insured and those who need testing for travel or other purposes.
