SUMMIT COUNTY, Utah. — Access to testing has been a constant problem throughout the pandemic, but thanks to a local partnership between Summit County, Park City, People’s Health Clinic, and the Park City Chamber of Commerce, free testing is now being provided to all businesses and employees in Summit County.

“We are proud of how Summit County businesses have responded during these trying times. As we move forward, we want to use every tool we have to keep the doors open and get people back to work as soon as it’s safe for everyone involved,” said Phil Bondurant, Summit County’s Deputy Health Officer, in a statement released by the partners. “This testing program is another way we can help make that happen.”

Keeping businesses open and healthy both from a medical and financial standpoint is a priority among all in this partnership. The free rapid testing program is for all businesses and their employees no matter their location within the county limits. They also do not have to belong to a business association or have a commercial office space.
