For the week of Oct. 12, there will be free COVID-19 testing events in Anoka, Faribault, Luverne, Alexandria, Aitkin and St. Cloud. The Minnesota National Guard will provide support at some of the clinics.

Testing is available for anyone who wants to get tested, even if they do not have symptoms. Insurance or identification are not required.
