Two state legislators have claimed that people are being told they are positive for COVID-19 even though they have not been tested for it.
Two local state legislators claimed in social media posts Wednesday night that there have been several incidents in which people not tested for COVID-19 have been told they are positive for the virus.
In posts on his Facebook and Twitter accounts, state Rep.

“This is not the first (or even close to being the first) report of this situation that we have received,” Bernstine wrote in his Facebook post. “I am continuing to work with my colleagues to obtain answers from the PA Department of Health.”
On Twitter, Bernstine posted the same message, but added. “This is INSANE!”
