Thank you so much.

So this is the first initial testing site here in savannah, missouri.

We're supposed to have it less than a mile down the road at the high school but the weather was supposed to be better.

So they thought they moved it down here to the fire station.

So we have, we began at 3:00 p.m.today.

So far there was 140 people signed up.

Everybody has come expect for one person, around 4:20 there were people that went through who weren't signed up and that is okay.

Welcome, janey.

>> hi, jody.

>> tell us how is the operation going.

And how did you get it done?

>> it's going smoothly so far.

We have lots of key players from the community.

Northwest health services is on deck and we have a wonderful planner leslie who has been doing these across the region.

She was a key part of getting this set up helping us with that.

>> reporter: tell us, you can test up to how many people today?

>> we have the capacity to test up to 300 this evening here.

>> reporter: wonderful.

Thank you, jane.

So the deal is is that you have until 7:00 p.m.to get down here.

They still have plenty of spaces available for you to just drive on through and get tested.

We don't know how pleasant it is.

None of us have taken it so we're going to one of these days.

Bob, remember this isn't your last opportunity to come down and get tested.

Back to you.
