I can think of a couple of reasons why people aren't signing up for the tests:
1) The County hasn't clearly stated that "anyone" can get tested.
2) Their testing web site reads like a propaganda press release; it's not written at all from the perspective of a resident trying to get clear information on how and where to get tested.
3) The bulk of the public testing (e.g., not through your medical provider/hospital or as a front-line employee) is provided by Verily Project Baseline (owned by Alphabet/Google) at Santa Clara County Fairgrounds and PAL Stadium, which requires an intrusive amount of personal/health information before they even say IF you can get tested.
Even the DMV's appointment system is better than the County's!

Big deal. What a joke: "an eye on reaching its goal of 4,000 tests per day by May 31" Cody is completely incompetant and should be forced out. They're only doing 1000 tests a day. Pathetic.
