MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Two-dozen Hy-Vee grocery stores in Minnesota will now provide free COVID-19 testing.

The Iowa-based company announced Wednesday the tests, which are being coordinated by eTrueNorth, will be available at each location's drive-thru pharmacy, with a testing capacity of 12 people per hour on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings.

Company officials say customers ages 3 and up do not need to be experiencing COVID symptoms to have a test -- which is in the form of a self-administered kit -- but they must sign up online before visiting. Tests take about five minutes, and kits are then sent to a lab to be processed. Customers can expect their results in three to five business days. Click here for more information.
