Rochester, MN (KROC-AM News) - A Twin Cities hospital is offering a different testing approach to patients who may have been exposed to the coronavirus known as COVID-19 - curbside testing.

M Health Fairview has posted the information on its website. Patients may be directed to come to one of its sites and remain in the vehicle while a swab sample is taken.

Mayo Clinic and other health care providers have added COVID-19 information to their websites. Businesses and other organizations have been responding by allowing/advising employees to work from home and canceling or limiting travel. 

Some businesses are also trying to help the financial strain some customers may be dealing with.
