Cars Line Up for Drive-Through Coronavirus Testing in Paramus, New Jersey

Long lines formed on local roadways surrounding Bergen Community College in Paramus, New Jersey, on March 20, after a drive-through coronavirus testing facility opened there on Friday, according to reports. The site, which has operating hours between 8 am and 4 pm local time, was forced to stop accepting more people before their official close time due to “overwhelming” response, reports said. Local news reports said no appointment was required, but only New Jersey residents showing symptoms — “a fever (99.6F or above), shortness of breath and a cough” — would be tested. As of Friday, New Jersey had 890 confirmed cases of COVID-19, reports said. Video filmed by Gina Cofone shows a long line of vehicles waiting to get into the screening area.
