That’s that the issue is that I see. In major cities you probably can get a test but anyone in a more rural area is going to have a hard time.
Nope. Our clinic does the test as well as rest of the clinics in the region. I was one of the poor bastids that was marooned by the Tustumena this weekend. Got a test and the results within an hour after my flight touched down.

I have a fishing trip scheduled with King Fisher Lodge. Because of the Governors orders there is no way to go. My son and I would have to get tested within 3 days of the trip. The turn around time for Central MT is 3 days so we wouldn't know the results until getting on the plane. If by chance we came up positive we would by kicked off the plane or not let into Alaska. If we weren't tested we would have to quarantine in Alaska for 14 days. I haven't cancelled yet in the hope common sense and new science will get things changed but am about to.

Testing will only screen the infected does nothing to ensure that you were not infected on your plane ride. Our numbers here have spiked considerably. 20 new cases today.
My Cousin who has lived in Haines AK since early 70,s was life-flighted to Anchorage due to a stroke, now due to CRV-19 no visitors unless he is 24hrs terminal! His wife or no one can visit him.

I gave a chainsaw to a marooned Tustamena passenger and the next thing I knew I was having my ass worked right off... Yards of chipped birch...
