CORRECTION!
“Following overwhelming demand for testing we have made the decision to reserve COVID-19 testing for patients who are at the highest risk. We currently have a supply of testing swabs on hand, however, we did not fully anticipate the impact of the crisis in Italy which is where the swabs are manufactured. We hope to continue to receive additional supplies, which will be a key part of our decision-making," the clinic said. "In the first four days of activating our public testing sites, we tested more than 2,200 patients with a small number of test results positive for COVID-19. We currently have 2,100 more patients waiting to be tested."
Starting on Wednesday, they will be prioritizing high risk patients to be tested at the W.O Walker testing facility on Euclid avenue.
Patients that are 60 and under, who have a doctor's order, are being asked to isolate themselves and not report to the testing facility.
