TWF 304 - Testing Availability Expanded In Freeport, Hempstead. (CoViD Update #7)

Greetings, friendly Freeporters!

Progress on the CoVID disaster has reportedly been pretty steadily improving, with NYS Senator Anna Kaplan citing ever-shrinking hospitalization numbers, specifically due to actions New Yorkers have taken regarding Social Distancing.  Please make no mistake - it is only due to our collective (relatively...) early action on reacting to the virus that has kept the number of deaths relatively stable, and preserved (most of) our health-care system.

But make no mistake - those who I've spoken to in the medical field have compared the fallout of the CoVID disaster to a "War-zone," and I have no reason to doubt them.  As every blinking Highway sign says, "Stay home, save lives."  After all, the less people who are admitted to the hospital, the less that doctors, nurses, and care-staff are exposed to the disease.

This is also a short update to signal-boost Nassau Executive Laura Curran's information about testing being expanded to Hempstead and Freeport residents, citizen-or-non.  See the below flyer for more information, and if you have CoVID symptoms don't hesitate to schedule an appointment to be tested.

Best wishes, and stay safe.  Only go out when necessary, and stay socially distant!
