Los Angeles Lakers forward Jared Dudley opened up Wednesday about getting tested for the coronavirus and described it as painful.
The Lakers announced in March that all of their players were going to be tested after playing the Brooklyn Nets. Four Nets players tested positive for COVID-19 and the Lakers later announced that two of their own players tested positive.

When asked how the testing went, Dudley tweeted: "The most uncomfortable 10 seconds of your life."

Garcetti offered a website where Los Angeles residents could sign up for the testing regardless if they have symptoms.
“Priority for the same or next day testing is still given to people with symptoms, such as fever, cough, and shortness of breath,” the government testing website says. “Testing is also prioritized for certain critical front-line workers who interact with the public while working.”
