COVID-19 testing capacity is being expanded in the largest city in western Massachusetts.
The city of Springfield is planning to open a COVID-19 testing site at the Putnam Vocational Technical High School. It will be for city residents who want to get tested whether they have symptoms or not, according to the city’s Health and Human Services Commissioner Helen Caulton-Harris.
Right now, the only other testing site is at Eastfield Mall and there are long lines there and individuals waiting, said Caulton-Harris.
Since the testing site in the Eastfield Mall parking lot opened last fall as part of the state’s Stop The Spread initiative, more than 118 000 people have been tested there free of charge, according to Caulton-Harris.
