"We bought some and some of the stores are out of them, and I noticed that Clifton Park and Saratoga County were teaming up to give us some tests. So, I was stopping here. I had three children and we just wanted to be able to use them if we need them," said Mel Hathaway from Clifton Park.

"You know this time of year everyone gets a sneeze. Everybody gets a sniffle. Do I think it’s Covid? No, but it’s good to have a test," said Shane Larkin, from Mechanicville.

The town of Halfmoon also distributed test kits on Saturday as well.
