COVID testing site at LAX among those struggling with shortage of test supplies

LOS ANGELES -- With the fast-spreading omicron variant again filing hospitals, some COVID-19 testing sites in Southern California find themselves on the verge of running out of tests.

ABC7 on Thursday evening visited a testing location at Los Angeles International Airport, where officials estimated that they could run out of tests on Saturday. The site's distributor might not be able to replenish its supplies until Jan. 12. "Just because you got the vaccine and you're boosted does not give you the green light to rip your mask off and go to a party -- because we are going to live 2021 all over again" if people are not cautious about mitigating the spread of COVID-19, said Steve Farzam, CEO of 911 COVID Testing.

Health experts recommend that people who test positive for COVID after multiple at-home tests should avoid going to public testing sites for an additional test. This will make more tests available for those who need them.

The owner of the testing site quoted in the article is a convicted felon. How do people trust him with their personal medical info 🤦‍♂️

Stop getting tested.

thermofisher HAS HELLA TESTS.

Why is testing the new big thing now?
