I was at the doctor (sick) the other day and they said 90% of their appointments that day were requests for COVID tests. They said about HALF of those were people with no symptoms - people that were going to the doctor because they were scared they might have COVID because somebody they knew had it.
The media is doing our healthcare workers a great disservice by continuing to harp on this like it's some great plague. There's difference between an informed public and an inflamed public.

Are there not public testing sites in your area, or are people just dumb and going to their primary doc instead? There are probably 20 free testing sites in the Denver metro, so I don't really know why anyone would bog down the healthcare system just to get a test.
