NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) — Demand for COVID-19 testing remained high Wednesday, with many sites reporting long lines as positive cases in Connecticut continue to climb and families prepare to gather for Christmas.
Mark Kidd, director of Wren Laboratories and one of two scientists that helped develop a saliva test that's now being offered at two locations in New Haven, said demand has “exploded” for COVID-19 testing and staff at his lab have been working 12-hour shifts to make sure people get timely results.
