Free Covid-19 antibody testing will be available this week at St. Hugh of Lincoln Church in Huntington Station.
The tests are free and determine whether an individual has previously been infected with COVID-19.
To arrange for a test, call 833-4CARENY or 833-422-7369. The tests are sponsored by Northwell Health, the state Department of Health, Suffolk County Community Recovery Initiative, and St. Hugh church.
Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said Sunday that the state is monitoring an uptick in cases in Rensselaer County, some of which may be linked to several individuals who tested positive for COVID-19 after traveling back to New York from Georgia.
“New York State continues to move forward combatting COVID-19 with its phased, data-driven reopening in the face of alarming increases in cases throughout the country and in the nationwide death rate,” Governor Cuomo said. “What’s happening elsewhere in the United States is very concerning to us here at home, and our ability to avoid the same fate rests on New Yorkers’ willingness to wear masks, socially distance and wash their hands, and local governments’ willingness to enforce state guidelines. Today’s numbers remain low and stable, but it is up to us to keep it that way. Being New York Tough isn’t easy, but New Yorkers have shown the nation that we can effectively fight the virus when we all come together, and I urge them not to give up any ground now,” the governor said.
