That's my guess since Goldman went last Thurs I think, so tests may be gone.

It's purpose us to limit exposure to other people while getting tested.
In RI one has to be screened by in DOH (using strict criteria) and then scheduled for a specific time to show up for testing.
It's a safer way of testing in many places.
It does not necessarily remove the triage process to select who gets a still very limited number of tests.
