NEW MASS TESTING SITE OPENS IN STONY POINT TODAY

1/04/2022

New York State will open a mass-testing center at the Patriot Hills golf course in Stony Point beginning today, Tuesday January 4th.

Testing will be mainly by appointment, although walk-ins can be accommodated depending on availability. Go to www.gogettested.com to schedule an appointment for a test. You can also schedule tests at other testing sites at the same link. At this time, the Patriot Hills testing site only has rapid antigen tests available, but it is expected that the site will soon have PCR testing available as well. 

If you are feeling unwell or have been exposed to someone who has COVID-19 symptoms or has tested positive, please stay home and quarantine, and schedule a test as soon as possible.

Remember, the best protection from COVID-19 is to get vaccinated and get a booster shot, which is now available for all New Yorkers ages 12 and older as of Monday January 3rd. I also recommend that all New Yorkers wear KN-95 masks when in public settings and whenever social distancing is not possible.

If you have any questions surrounding if you should get tested, or if you or your kids should get vaccinated or boosted, please consult your family doctor.
