As families settle into the holiday season, the Colorado Department of Health and Environment has announced a new slate of free, community-run testing sites for COVID-19.
CDPHE said in a press release that some of the new locations were already up and running as of Thursday, though some will not open until Sunday morning.
The state also plans to hold a series of one-off testing events through Tuesday. The newly announced events and sites will accept walk-ins, but CDPHE says people seeking a test should still register online beforehand.
A list of the new locations and event details can be found below. Links to the appropriate registration pages are attached. CDPHE has a guide to its other testing options on its website.
