KEILAR: New Jersey now has more than 8,800 confirmed cases of coronavirus as the state continues to ramp up testing. There's two state-run testing sites that have now been opened to the public since Monday. They will now be open only to first responders starting tomorrow. And CNN's Athena Jones is at one of those local stations. Athena, tell us about this.</s>ATHENA JONES, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Hi, Brianna. We're here at the PNC Bank Art Center. It's one of the two locations being run by the state of New Jersey. It's a partnership between the state's health department and the New Jersey National Guard. And as you mentioned, this location has been open since 8:00 a.m. on Monday. And they've been seeing a huge influx of people coming to get testing. The first couple of days of the week, they reached capacity, I'm told, which means they ran out of tests within 15 minutes, maybe 30 minutes. Today it has wrapped up. You can see the lanes set up behind me. The tents set up. When we got here, that was full of cars waiting to go through to get swabbed by the health care workers wearing the protective gear, but today, it took a little while longer for them to reach capacity of 250. But bottom line, a lot of folks are coming. Today though, anyone who was a New Jersey resident who has symptoms. Tomorrow, at this site, they will be testing health care workers and first responders only, symptomatic health care workers and first responders. And we know that's important because these are folks who are on the front lines dealing with patients. They're concerned about getting the illness themselves and spreading it further to their families or other people -- Brianna?</s>KEILAR: Athena, thank you so much. So important they're doing this for first responders. We see them hit so disproportionately. Meanwhile, Detroit identified as one of the next hot spots as this virus sweeps across the country, but President Trump is attacking Michigan's governor for asking for a federal emergency declaration. I'll get reaction from an emergency room doctor who's currently on the front line in that state.
