Health Departments Should Reopen Health Clinics To Help With COVID Testing

  • Tuesday, November 17, 2020

Seems to me that the COVID testing lines and wait times could be reduced considerably at the Alstom Plant if the Health Department would reopen the health clinics. 

Folks in Birchwood and Ooltewah would not have to drive so far to be tested.

The odds are that a lot of people are not being tested because of the drive and wait time. Let's make it a little easier for the residents of those areas.
