Rite Aid (NYSE: RAD) continues to expand its no-charge COVID-19
testing service with the addition of six drive-through locations
opening on July 30 in Michigan and Ohio, through its partnership
with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
Like Rite Aid's existing drive-through testing sites, the new
locations will utilize self-swab nasal tests overseen by Rite Aid
pharmacists, and will operate Monday through Friday 10 a.m. - 8
p.m. and Saturday and Sunday 10 a.m. - 5 p.m.
Rite Aid's COVID-19 nasal tests are available for all adults,
regardless if they are experiencing virus symptoms, in accordance
with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidance.
At all testing locations, patients are required to provide
government issued identification, be at least 18 years old and need
to pre-register online at www.riteaid.com in order to schedule a
time slot for testing.
Now operating 264 testing sites in 15 states, Rite Aid will have
the capacity to conduct more than 96,100 tests weekly across all
locations.
The six new testing sites are located at the following Rite Aid
