Fact Check: PNC Arts Center is Not a Free Coronavirus Test Site

Shore News Network

HOLMDEL-Apparently, stock photos showing lines going into the PNC Bank Arts Center caused social media to jump the gun when making people think the PNC Bank Arts Center is a test site for coronavirus in New Jersey.

New Jersey Assemblywoman Serena DiMaso explains:

Folks, we understand that there have been conflicting reports in the media about a proposed testing center at PNC Bank Arts Center in Holmdel. However please be advised that while this location has been proposed, there is not currently a testing site at PNC. This site has been proposed as a supply staging area for first responders and local/county officials as well.

Should testing become available at PNC, information and instruction on how and when to be tested will be disbursed. Please await further instruction. Please refrain from driving through the location as at present it will merely create a traffic and safety issue for our first responders who will have to take time away from other COVID-19 response duties. Thank you all for your understanding and cooperation.
