July 13, 2020

Screening for Covid-19 will be available at the New Wright MC Church in Aliceville, Alabama, on Tuesday, July 14, from 9 am to noon, for as long as supplies are available.

The screening process includes questions about symptoms being experienced, such as coughing, shortness of breath and fever. Temperatures will be taken if people report fever during their screening. Testing will be done with swabs. You do not need health insurance to be screened.
