COVID testing site at Roosevelt Island

COVID testing site at Roosevelt Island

The Issue

With a population of nearly 12,000 residents, Roosevelt Island doesn't have a COVID testing site at the moment. There was a testing center that closed in June 2021. There are multiple schools, daycare facilities and a university (Cornell tech). Also, many senior and disabled residents who can’t easily and economically go to find a test site. We want our community to feel safe and have the opportunity to access to a COVID test. Thanks a lot for your support.
