PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — Gov. Dan McKee will have a special guest at his COVID-19 briefing Thursday morning.

White House COVID-19 Coordinator Dr. Ashish Jha will join McKee virtually at 11:30 a.m. to announce the nation’s first federally backed Test-to-Treat site is opening at a clinic in Providence.

12 News plans to stream the briefing live right here on WPRI.com and in the WPRI 12 News app.

The new site comes as the White House announced more steps Thursday to make the antiviral treatment Paxlovid more accessible across the United States. The site will provide patients with immediate access to the drug once they test positive.
