Floridians are waiting in line for hours to get tested for COVID-19, as the state grapples with record-breaking case numbers.
The line began forming around 6 a.m. Sunday at a drive-thru coronavirus testing site at Barnett Park — three hours before the Orange County facility opened, Spectrum News reported.
Hundreds of cars wrapped around the site, which has recently had to turn people away before its normal closing time because it’s reached capacity, the outlet reported.
