MARQUETTE, MI— Sawyer International Airport will continue to offer testing for COVID-19.

It will be limited to ticketed passengers or airport-credentialed tenants. Vaccinations will also be offered at the testing site for the flying public.

Services are offered Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

And, given the uptick in COVID numbers and the increased volume of testing by the non-traveling public, another testing site has been opened at the Westwood Mall in Marquette. It’s open Monday through Saturday from

1 p.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Both sites offer the rapid test, which provides results within 30 minutes. PCR lab tests are also available. Those results are usually returned within three days.

All services are free of charge. Insurance is accepted, but not required.
