Updated on December 29, 2020 at 7:19 am NBC Universal, Inc. As the latest coronavirus surge continues in the Bay Area, many people are turning to testing -- not only those who feel sick but also those who want to see if they're in the clear to celebrate New Year's Eve with family and friends. A new pop-up, self-testing site is scheduled to open Tuesday morning at the Mitchell Park Library in Palo Alto. Starting at 10 a.m., people can show up for a free test they administer themselves under the supervision of a trained observer. The Palo Alto testing site, one of a number of sites launching this week, gets results within 24 to 48 hours, except during high demand. And there is a lot of demand this week.
