The Revere Board of Health is advising residents who gathered with people outside of their household on Thanksgiving to isolate, get tested and monitor for symptoms in the 14 days following the holiday.
Health officials are also reminding people that a negative test result does not eliminate the risk of having contracted the virus.

Free testing sites are also available in Brockton, Chelsea, Everett, Fall River, Framingham, Holyoke, Lawrence, Lynn, Marlborough, Methuen, New Bedford, Randolph, Salem, Saugus, Springfield, Winthrop and Worcester.
