HINGHAM — The Hingham Health Department reports that the Town of Hingham has made COVID-19 test kits available at the Hingham Senior Center, 224 Central Street.
The kits are iHealth COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Tests, with two tests included per box.
Information on when and how to test yourself for COVID-19 can be found on the mass.gov website.
On Feb. 28, Hingham Public Schools implemented a mask-optional policy in its buildings and on its busses. On March 3, the Hingham Board of Health lifted its mask advisory. On March 4, the Town Administrator lifted the masking requirement in non-school buildings in town, effective March 7. These decisions leave masking an individual’s option in all town-owned facilities.
