COVID-19 Testing
The Chester County Health Department has finalized two additional locations for COVID-19 testing providers to establish free test sites, available by appointment around the county. Free PCR testing is now available at the Chester County Government Services Center, Westtown Road in West Chester. A second testing site opens today, Tuesday, January 11, 2022 at the Technical College High School – Pennock’s Bridge Campus, located at 280 Pennock’s Bridge Road in West Grove.
Both of these locations will be independently operated by the testing company Curative, which will manage test site locations, logistics and schedules, as well as appointments. Further testing locations are being rolled-out across Chester County and will be announced in the coming days.
