U.S. Plans Expansion of Testing at CVS, Other Retail Locations

The U.S. is planning a major expansion of coronavirus testing at retail health locations around the country, part of a plan to vastly expand checks for the virus and begin getting people back to work.

CVS Health Corp., the U.S. drugstore chain, said Monday it will open testing sites at 1,000 of its stores. The announcement coincides with a planned meeting between President Donald Trump and some of the nation’s largest retailers and lab testing companies. Other retailers are expected to make similar announcements at the meeting.
