COVID-19 testing options will include a rapid molecular COVID-19 test, the polymerase chain reaction test and the blood antibody test. All three tests are similarly off ered at the XpresCheck locations in JFK International Airport and Newark Liberty International Airport. “We are eager to launch XpresCheck at Boston Logan International Airport, which will be our third COVID-19 testing facility this fall. We believe that our current presence in JFK and Newark, and upcoming expansion to Logan enables us to play an important role in supporting the return of domestic and international air travel to pre-pandemic levels by making sure both airport employees and travelers feel safe and confident when they come to the airport,” said XpresSpa Group CEO Doug Satzman. “As previously indicated, our intention is to continue XpresCheck’s national expansion and we remain in active discussions with additional airports for further development of this concept.” FROM MTVʼS AMERICAʼS BEST DANCE CREW
