The Mayor and City Council of Cumberland will be sponsoring another COVID test event for employees of Cumberland businesses on December 23rd. All employees working at businesses within Cumberland are eligible for the test, which will be administered by PharmaCare staff, at no cost to themselves or to their employer.

Employers located within the City of Cumberland will need to pre-register their participating employees no later than 12 Noon on Tuesday, December 22nd using the link found on the City’s website at cumberlandmd.gov. Pre-registration will allow Pharmacare staff to minimize wait times on-site by having the relevant information on hand.

Pre-registered individuals should enter the Activities building through the marked door, check in, proceed to the nurse for their test and then exit on the other side of the building.
