NEW Health Expands Thursday COVID-19 Testing Hours
With the COVID-19 positive test rate increasing dramatically across the city following the Thanksgiving holiday, North End Waterfront Health (NEW Health) announced it is expanding testing hours at its Hannover Street site for Charlestown and North End residents and NEW Health patients.
“The North End site has extended its Thursday hours, with an additional testing session from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.,” said NEW Health’s Mary Zanor. Zanor explained that the Thursday testing session ended at 12 p.m. but the need to increase testing and a citywide COVID spike made NEW Health decide to expand hours to help more people get tested.
