IMMOKALEE<\/p>\n
Testing people for the coronavirus is more important than ever as the state continues to reopen, so on Sunday in Immokalee, people can get tested without a doctors note.<\/p>\n
Immokalee is among the hot spots for COVID-19 in Florida, with more than 400 confirmed cases in just the last month.<\/p>\n
This is going to be a very, very hot spot here if we dont do something about it. Theres plenty of deaths already, we dont want the number to rise more, said Dr. Antonio Gonzalez, a family doctor in Immokalee.<\/p>\n
I dont know if a letter to the governors office and or the emergency management services in Tallahassee would assist this or not, but I would love to see more testing as soon as possible, said Collier County Commissioner Bill McDaniel.<\/p>\n
McDaniel said those words last week, and the state will be testing more people on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The walk-up test site is at 419 N. First St., and is open from noon to 6 p.m.<\/p>\n
Doctors Without Borders will also be doing tests at more targeted sites during the week.<\/p>\n
