NEW YORK, November 18, 2020 /3BL Media/ — In partnership with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and JetBlue, New York’s Hometown Airline®, the NYC Test & Trace Corps today announced the opening of a new COVID-19 testing site at JetBlue’s Terminal 5 at (T5) John F. Kennedy International Airport.

The new testing location opens today and will be fully-operational for six months, with the capacity for up to 600 tests per day. The site will provide free, walk-in testing seven days a week, from 9 a.m. – 7 p.m. With more than 40,000 essential airline and airport workers at JFK, the new testing site will bolster outreach to this critical frontline group while also allowing those who must travel the chance to test before and after a flight and receive results within 48 hours on average.

在Laguardia Airport的码头B车库上一个地点开业之后,新的肯尼迪网站成为纽约市机场的第二个免费测试地点,每天有能力测试400个人。纽约人可以参观五个行政区的200多个测试地点。要查找最近的测试站点,请访问nyc.gov/covidtest,或致电(212)-COVID19的NYC Test&Trace Corps Hotline。

除了新的测试网站外,测试和微量军团还与JetBlue合作,以帮助旅行者理解并遵守纽约州最近对外部旅行的最新要求。在新的指导下,从与纽约或CDC 2或3级旅行咨询国家无共边界的任何州到达的旅行者都可以选择在返回纽约时缩短强制性隔离,通过参加不超过72到达纽约之前的数小时(在抵达之前不需要结果),在纽约登陆纽约之前完成了纽约州旅行者健康表格,隔离了三天,在第四天进行了第二次测试。当两个阴性测试结果得到确认时,隔离仪可以结束。

To help promote safe reentry into New York, Test & Trace Corps will trial a partnership with JetBlue to distribute test kits to customers on select flights over a period of several days. The test is a nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) and includes clinician support by Picture Genetics by Fulgent Genetics, a certified and accredited clinical diagnostic lab. Customers will be offered a test kit upon boarding, which they can keep until they are within 72 hours of their return to New York, and then self-administer and mail in order to satisfy New York State’s pre-arrival testing requirement. Once the lab receives the test, results will be provided within 48 hours. The traveler must still quarantine for four days upon their return to New York and test negative on the fourth day in order to end quarantine before the typical 14-day quarantine period.

这是JetBlue从“磨合”计划中更广泛安全的最新安全性,该计划的重点是健康的机组人员,清洁的空气和表面,更少的接触点以及旅行灵活性。该航空公司致力于继续发展该计划,同时专注于确保想要或需要旅行的客户感到舒适。要了解有关航空公司安全计划的更多信息,请访问JetBlue.com/safety.
