Thank you, WV for setting up free COVID19 testing. Check with your county, WV neighbors. Six counties in West Virginia set up free COVID-19 testing sites this weekend to increase testing opportunities for minorities and other vulnerable populations in medically-underserved counties
The testing sites were staffed by medical personnel also assisted by the West Virginia national guard.
Berkeley-Morgan County Board of Health Director Bill Kearms said anyone could come to get tested.
“It’s the easiest drive-thru clinic you’ill ever have,” Kearms said. “You just stay in your car, you don’t get out. You can stay in the air conditioning.”
Participants will likely get their test results withing 3-7 business days and Kearms said any plans for future test sites depend on community needs and the availability of supplies.
Reading through the headlines, I thought you'd find some of these interesting regarding West Virginia and housing:

Upwork CEO Stephane Kasriel wrote that people get tired of “skyrocketing housing costs, pricey child care, the crowds and the relentless traffic. Sometimes the local culture isn’t a fit or they want to be nearer to family.”
Many live in or near the city because that’s where the jobs are, but the increasing trend is working remotely and skilled professionals, especially in an employee market like we have now, have market power.
