Woodbridge To Distribute Coronavirus Test Kits, Masks Saturday

From Woodbridge First Selectman Beth Heller:

Dear Woodbridge Friends and Neighbors,

The Town of Woodbridge has received a second, smaller delivery of COVID-19 at-home rapid-test kits from the State government this week along with N95 masks. There has been no information from the State about additional supplies -- if or when we receive more, we will update you.

We will be distributing N95 masks and approximately 250 COVID-19 test kits on a first-come, first-served basis on Saturday Jan. 8 from 9 to 11 am, or until supplies run out. Similar to earlier this week, this will be a drive-thru event in the Senior Center/Library shared parking lot at 4 Meetinghouse Lane. Traffic will enter the lot from Meetinghouse Lane and exit onto Center Road, similar to Election Day. Masks will be required, as will proof of residency in the form of a driver’s license with Woodbridge address or an ID and recent piece of mail with your Woodbridge address. There will be a maximum allotment of 1 test kit and 10 masks per household. Each kit has 2 tests.

Since there are a limited number of test kits available, I request that you only come to request one if you need one because you are experiencing symptoms or have been exposed to someone COVID-19 positive.

I thank our Police Department and Volunteer Fire Department for making this distribution possible and for organizing it on such short notice.

Please stay safe!
