MORE THAN 27,000 NEBRASKANS HAVE BEEN TESTED FOR CORONAVIRUS BY TESTNEBRASKA

OMAHA - More than 27,000 Nebraskans have been tested for the coronavirus through the state’s $27 million testing initiative, TestNebraska. Statistics released by the state Wednesday show that of those tested in May who have received their results, 886 tested positive and 23,170 tested negative. Forty-eight inconclusive results have come back since the start of testing.

Last week, Nebraska began to offer coronavirus tests to people outside of priority groups.

The expansion of TestNebraska means that anyone ages 15 to 35 can get tested in Douglas, Lancaster, and Sarpy Counties, as well as anyone of any age group in the other 90 Nebraska counties.
