GLOUCESTER – Mayor Greg Verga is pleased to share that Curative, in collaboration with the Gloucester Health Department, has opened a COVID-19 testing site offering PCR tests for all ages at Stage Fort Park.
WHEN:
Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.
WHERE:
Stage Fort Park, 24 Hough Ave., Gloucester, MA.
WHAT:
Curative has opened a PCR testing site for COVID-19 in a parking lot at Stage Fort Park in Gloucester to increase the availability of reliable PCR testing, amid the growing surge in cases of the COVID-19 Omicron variant.
Curative operates a network of more than 13,000 testing sites across 18 states. It previously operated a testing site at The Open Door in Gloucester.
Tests are available by appointment only. Walk-ins will not be accepted.
The tests will be provided at no out-of-pocket cost, but individuals who have health insurance should have their insurance card ready at registration, because health insurance companies will be billed if possible. Health insurance is not required to be tested. Identification will be required at the time of testing.

Anyone who has questions or who needs assistance with booking an appointment can contact Curative by calling 888-702-9042.
Test results will be provided via email one to two days after they arrive at the Curative lab.
“I would like to thank the Department of Public Health, Curative, and our state partners for making this testing site possible,” Mayor Verga said. “As cases continue to rise in our community, access to testing and vaccines is critical to the health and safety of our community.”
