MANCHESTER, NH — The New Hampshire National Guard Armory has become a remote testing site being run by Manchester Health Department and Manchester Fire Department. Manchester police are doing security at the location. The testing location is in a secure area behind barbed wire but cars are lined up outside the secure area. Approximately 50 cars consistently lined up winding around the parking lot waiting for their turns. The people being directed to the site have been directed by primary care physicians and must be in the computer system with an acknowledged appointment in order to be tested. People being tested would pull up to workers with protective gear, quickly being sampled and sent on their way out of the secure area.
