During a press conference on Tuesday, June 16th, Ohio Governor Mike DeWine announced that Coronavirus pop-up testing has begun across the state. DeWine noted that these testing sites are held by the Ohio National Guard, the state’s Minority Strikeforce, and local health officials. 

Testing is free to anyone who wants to be tested, even those who are low-risk or are not showing symptoms. Cincinnati, Middletown, and Portsmouth are scheduled to offer pop-up testing this week. More areas will be announced in the future.
