Team, take this very seriously. We're probably a week in front of you. And the news here is... not good.
Curious why you think NYC is a week in front of Memphis. Two totally different situations (density, demographics, travelers). I believe the first cases in each city were within 3 days of each other.

Thanks to the hard working god fearing people who work hard and pay taxes so that we can have this test center. This is example of hard earned money, that is taxed fairly and spent wisely.
I would put the cost of the testing station at around $30 million dollars to run for a week (round numbers, I assume of the 500,000 test kits Memphis will get 125,000 @ $135ea, plane fuel to fly them here + staff of 20@ $40Per Hour for 12 hours a day + equipment rental + security).
No, everyone just "concerned" should not get tested. That is not the guidance, nor is it practical. Testing is to be referred by a doctor for people exhibiting symptoms for more than 24 hours.
And I don't think we're getting 125k test kits - at least not initially.
Correct
The drive up testing Baptist is setting up across the organization is not for any joe who drives up. You are required to call and be screened over the phone first, then if you meet the CDC criteria you will be scheduled for the drive up testing. DO NOT JUST SHOW UP... PERIOD.
Use this site for more resources and correct information. There is a 24/7 hotline set up as well for people who have concerns or questions.

RE: Tigerlane Testing center
It's doesn't seem logical for folks to get tested if they have no symptoms and have no reason to believe they have been in CLOSE contact to an infected person.

Do you always get mad and start cussing when you don't agree with someone? You seem like an angry fella. I am sure you will dock me some points like you have in the past. More proof of your issues.

It's uh, it's a very famous movie reference and said in jest.
Go educate yourself sometime.
I neg-repped you once because you brought up my mother. You forgot to mention that part.

You're the one who complains about what I say, genius.
Go get bothered elsewhere.

You put a complete sentence together with no cussing. Good for you. Have a nice night.
