Officials urge protesters to get tested for coronavirus

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Health officials in Kentucky’s largest city are urging protesters to get tested for the coronavirus. In addition, the Louisville Metro Department of Public Health and Wellness said in a statement that protesters should take precautions that include wearing face masks, staying in small groups that are 6 feet apart, and using signs and noisemakers instead of yelling. The city has had days of protests demanding justice for Breonna Taylor, a black woman who was killed by police in her home in Louisville in March. The demonstrations also erupted over the death of a black man in Minneapolis — George Floyd — in an encounter with police.
