Coronavirus: the City of Paris opens free testing center in each arrondissement

Facilitating access to tests as queues are growing longer every day in front of private laboratories. So is the goal set by the Ville de Paris this Fall 2020. To do so, the French capital and the Regional Health Agency have decided to improve testing centers by fitting each arrondissement with free testing centers.

Thanks to new testing spaces set in tents, the City of Paris aims at improving free tests for everyone, including people holding no health insurance. Therefore, Paris city hall says social security card holders can present it but this is not mandatory.

So, where can you go to find these free testing centers in Paris? So far, meet in front of the City Hall (4^th arrondissement), at the Centre Sportif Emile-Anthoine (15^th arrondissement) and in front of the 19^th arrondissement town hall.
