Expanding Our Effort in LAC

AltaMed is now working in partnership with Los Angeles at the county and city levels; today we've set up a brand new testing and evaluation site at 2040 Camfield Avenue in Commerce, and tomorrow we will be launching a site at 1724 Pennsylvania Avenue in Boyle Heights. Anyone in Los Angeles County can register online to be tested for COVID-19 but we are prioritizing those who are over 65 or whose health is likely to be compromised by the virus.
