Covid-19 at- Home Test Line at South Boston Public Library

UPDATE:
Follow South Boston branch of BPL on Twitter for the latest news on tests. As of Wednesday, the library was out of tests and was unsure if they would be getting any more!

Original Post:
We realize South Boston is know for its lines. Brunch line a Lincoln. Line to get into Capo Supper Club. The Broadway has a line for the Pats Game. Even Walgreen’s has a line most days. On Tuesday morning, the beast of all lines was in front of the South Boston Public Library. Residents lined up and stretched all the way past Dorgan’s Liquor Store hoping to get a coveted FREE Covid-19 at-home test. The Southie Line Girls posted the line this morning.
Needless to say, the supply of tests quickly ran out. We did hear that more tests were brought to the library this afternoon and there was no line as of 12pm.
Here is list of places you can get Free At-Home Covid Tests in the City of Boston.
