BOSTON — Massachusetts is now at the center of the national outbreak and the White House Coronavirus Task Force says it is monitoring Massachusetts and Boston.

According to the city:
- Testing is free regardless of insurance or immigration status and will not affect "public charge" rule determinations.
- All sites require you to CALL AHEAD for pre-screening and to schedule an appointment.
- Hours vary between sites. CALL AHEAD.
