Today the county completed our first day of mobile testing in partnership with Bergen New Bridge Medical Center at Veterans Memorial Park in Englewood where we served over 500 people. The event was a success and I look forward to the program’s expansion across Bergen County.

Tomorrow the community mobile testing vehicle will be in Hackensack at the Mellone and Mariniello Recreation Center located at 116 Holt Street. First responders are eligible to receive priority testing from 9-10am and the site will be open to the general public from 10am to 3:30pm.

All upcoming community mobile testing sites will offer the COVID-19 virus and COVID-19 antibody tests. The COVID-19 saliva test is available to symptomatic and asymptomatic county residents as well as first responders, healthcare workers, and municipal or county employees who works in Bergen County with proof of employment. Due to demand, antibody testing will be limited to 100 per day and only be available for Bergen County first responders, healthcare workers, and Bergen County residents who previously tested positive for COVID-19 with documentation of prior test results. All mobile site patients will be limited to a choice of either the saliva or antibody test.

Mobile testing is available on a first come, first serve basis and is free of charge to the patient, regardless of health insurance status.
