UPMC Mercy’s South Side Outpatient Center sat dormant and quiet for about a year before it became the epicenter of some of the health care system’s covid-19 programs.
The focus of the Mary Street site has evolved since the pandemic began, concentrating on testing first with a UPMC-developed test and then with commercially available tests. As vaccines became available, the clinic expanded to offer mass vaccinations.
