Show Notes

(01:01)
 Can you tell us how lab testing capacity is in general at Mayo Clinic and across the United States? 

(03:34)
 We’re trying to balance how we test for the routine stuff, in addition to meeting COVID demands? 

(04:40)
 How should we be using testing to manage this COVID-19 outbreak? 

(06:36)
 So the partnership you mentioned, do you want to tell us a little bit more about that? Because it was recently announced and not everyone may have seen those announcements with what we're doing with Delta.
