Although Not The Best Locations, Hunt Regional Emergency Centers Are Testing For Coronavirus

KETR

Kim Saenz, director of the Hunt Regional Emergency Centers in Commerce and Quinlan, says they're providing coronavirus testing to people who turn up at the emegency centers, although there are places in Hunt County better suited to provide testing for people without symptoms, such as the office of their personal physician or minor-care or urgent-care facilities. Kim says Hunt Regional has made some changes in its rules for visitorsbecause of the increase in coronavirus cases.
