The second of three free coronavirus testing clinics put on by the Clark County Combined Health District and the City of Springfield will open today at noon.

The clinic will be open from noon until 6 p.m. at Perrin Woods Elementary School located at 431 W. John St. in Springfield.

Testing will be available to anyone who wants one — free of charge — regardless of insurance, appointment or doctor’s note.

The clinic will not be a drive-through. Instead, residents will park their car and stand in line on foot. They will then walk through the line and fill out a registration form with their contact information before being tested.

Last week, hundreds of residents were tested. CCCHD spokesperson Emma Smales said on Monday the district is still awaiting some of the results from that event.
