Officials plead, if you register for testing online – show up

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – After a successful first day of drive through testing for COVID-19, officials are worried about one thing, attendance.

Multiple Warren County officials are pleading with the public, if you register for testing online – show up.

Tuesday, 20% of those who registered did not show up.

That means 70 different people who would have shown up were not able to get a test.

Barren River District Health Department Director Matt Hunt says these kinds of actions cannot continue to occur.

Hunt also says Tuesday’s process went extremely smoothly with a maximum of five cars waiting in line at a time.
