ATLANTA, GA – Did you celebrate Labor Day with friends or a family circle last weekend?If so, you may need to be tested for the coronavirus.
Governor Brian Kemp told Richard Elliot of WSB-TV on Thursday that one form of Georgia’s downward trend in numbers is to get tested if he might have been exposed to coronavirus.
“If you were in those environments, you’ve let your guard down a little bit,” Kemp tells Elliot, “go ahead and get tested. “
Those who test positive for coronavirus do not necessarily have poor health; in some cases, they may not even show symptoms, but possibly spread the COVID-19 virus to others who are vulnerable.
With Georgia’s verification functions higher but underused, Kemp said it was the best time to check for coronavirus.
Georgia’s Friday afternoon report continues to show a downward trend, with fewer than 1900 new cases of the COVID-19 virus and fewer than 50 deaths.

While more and more Georgians have been revised over the next month, the percentage of positive controls has increased slightly, from about 8% to more than 10%. However, in recent weeks, the percentage of positives has stabilized by just over 10% and is now slowly starting to decline. According to the World Health Organization, positive control effects do not exceed 5% for two weeks before reopening as usual. Georgia largely reopened in April and May, and since then Kemp has encouraged the use of mask however he has categorically refused to force them.
