The COVID-19 mobile screening clinic is still up and running in the borough of Montreal North, one of the areas most affected by the novel coronavirus, but it has moved to a new location.
The walk-in clinic is open Monday and Tuesday between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. at the Maison culturelle et communautaire de Montréal-Nord, located on Rolland Boulevard.
Last week, the mobile screening clinic was at the Garon arena before it moved to the Fleury arena over the weekend.
The CIUSSS du Nord-de-l’Île de Montréal, the regional public health authority, says people must experience symptoms such as fever or coughing, or have difficulty breathing, in order to be tested.
