Wayne County Health

If you want to get tested at the old Elder-Beerman for Covid-19 but can't stand the thought of this, there's good news. This long swab has been replaced by a much shorter one that barely goes into the nose.

Free testing for COVID-19 is available at a site set up by the state at the former Elder-Beerman building in Richmond, but it might not be there long if more people don't use it. bit.ly/2Zk2nUK
