Google is building a screening website to gain access to coronavirus testing

- aazaa 7y ago> Carolyn Wang, communications lead for Verily, told The Verge that the “triage website” was initially only going to be made available to health care workers instead of the general public. Now that it has been announced the way it was, however, anybody will be able to visit it, she said. But the tool will only be able to direct people to “pilot sites” for testing in the Bay Area, though Wang says Verily hopes to expand it beyond California “over time.” That is most definitely not the impression conveyed by the president's speech. This is a very, very bad sign.
