Free testing for COVID-19 is available Monday morning in Marshfield.
The Webster County Health Department says the drive-thru tests are being conducted at the county fairgrounds (614 North Marshall).
The testing event, which runs from 9:00 a.m. through 11 a.m., does not require an appointment, and it’s open to anyone, regardless of county residency.
You also don’t need to have symptoms of the virus or a doctor’s note to be tested.
PCR testing is being provided at the event, which is conducted by nasal swab and tests for current infection.
You are being asked to bring your health insurance information, but if you are not covered by insurance or if insurance only covers part of the cost of testing, there will be no cost to the person being tested.
Face coverings will also be made available at no cost, to anyone needing them.
In addition to the Marshfield drive-thru site, no cost testing is offered by appointment at the Fordland Clinic.
Appointments can be made by calling the clinic at 417-767-2273.
