Penn Medicine Opens Covid-19 Testing Site For Anyone With Symptoms

The most important weapon against Covid-19, and one this country has failed to use, is the widespread and rapid use of testing. This approach has been successful in Iceland, Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong. Penn Medicine has opened a testing site for anyone with symptoms. No referral needed. No charge. Details here.

    I’m awaiting LVHN’s acquisition by Penn Medicine. They demonstrated they could swallow Lancaster General. They don’t want UPMC in eastern Pennsylvania, so LVHN is next.

    `A lot of good this test site does for us in the lehigh valley. If I were to drive down to get tested i would get arrested for leaving my home like that lady in York, pa. When are our two giant medical bastions going to open at least one test site here?

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
