New Covid-19 testing site opens May 18, at Allen Temple Baptist Church
Coronavirus Covid-19 Pandemic
New Covid-19 testing site opens May 18, at Allen Temple Baptist Church
By Lynda Carson - May 18, 2020
Oakland - The coronavirus Covid-19 known cases and deaths in Alameda County, and Oakland keep rising with no end in site. As of yesterday, there were 1,467,065 known Covid-19 cases in the U.S., with 88,709 deaths.
A new Covid-19 testing site opens up on Monday, May 18, at Allen Temple Baptist Church in East Oakland, for drive-through and walk-up testing. The Covid-19 testing service will be free of charge, and the location of Allen Temple Baptist Church is 8501 International BLVD, Oakland.
Oakland is in a partnership with Project Baseline for the Covid-19 testing project. Project Baseline was founded by Verily Life Sciences LLC, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc., a sister company to Google.
According to the website for the Secretary of State, in California, Verily Life Sciences LLC became active as of 9/8/2015, and is a Delaware company. The CEO is Andrew Conrad.
Reportedly, Andrew Conrad is a divisive and impulsive leader, resulting in the loss of top talent at Verily.
Additionally, questions exist in regards to what can be done with the Covid-19 testing information that is being collected by Verily Life Sciences LLC, as can be seen in a March 31, 2020, letter to Andrew Conrad by some members of the U.S. Senate, plus a letter to Tim Cook, CEO of Apple Inc, and a letter from Consumer Reports to Andrew Conrad.
Apparently, it is not precisely clear what Project Baseline/Verily can do with the Covid-19 testing information they are collecting, or who they will share the information with.
According to a March 13, 2020, statement on Twitter from Verily, it states, “We are developing a tool to help triage individuals for Covid-19 testing. Verily is in the early stages of development, and planning to roll testing out in the Bay Area, with the hope of expanding more broadly over time.”
Many more questions exist because Google is known as a data mining company, not a health care company.
People interested in getting tested are being told that they need to make an appointment for testing, and the website link/s below has appointment testing information.

Meanwhile, as the economy reopens across the country too soon while the coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic is still raging across the nation, it is expected that there will be tens of thousands of more deaths as a direct result.
