(Oldham County, Ky.) – During Wednesday’s press conference, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear on Wednesday announced that the state’s ongoing partnership with Kroger will bring expanded COVID-19 drive through testing.

Over the next week, several locations across the commonwealth will be opening for the testing of Kentuckians.

There will be a drive-through testing clinic from Tuesday, June 16 to Thursday, June 18 at Oldham County High School.

“Testing is absolutely critical if we want to reopen safely,” the Governor said.

As of Wednesday, more than 302,000 coronavirus test have been conducted on Kentuckians, Gov. Beshear said the state’s testing capacity is high and urged everyone to get tested.

“If you haven’t ever had a test, get one. If you haven’t had one in about a month, get one. If you’ve started doing more things out there, get one. If you are somebody who is going back to work, get one,” the Governor said. “It not only can give you peace of mind to know that you are not spreading it to other people, but it also helps us as a state to have the data that we need.”
