If you’re concerned about exposure to #COVID19, your first call should be to your primary care physician, not a trip to the emergency department. Don’t have a primary care doctor? Check out Providence Express Care Virtual. http://provhealth.org/60101oDHO

Some good news:

Scott Gottlieb, MD
@ScottGottliebMD
Each lab can do about 100 tests a day, which means substantial capacity is coming on line. The key statistic is daily capacity not just total amount of reagents available. Access will turn on how many tests can be run a day so the key is getting more labs going.

As of tonight, there are 31 #PublicHealth laboratories across the country able to test for #coronavirus with 10 more expected over the rest of the weekend. Then next week @CDCgov sends more test kits & we’ll have 100+ labs ready.
