WE DON'T WANT TO KEEP YOU WAITING!
We're expecting 250-300 people for this screening, which is great news!
However, we don't want participants to wait a long time before they have
their blood drawn. Can you help us? If possible, we'd like people to plan

M-S: 10:30 - 11:30
T-Z: 11:30 - 12:30
If you are unable to make the above scheduled time, you will NOT be turned
away-but if you can plan to attend at your scheduled time, we'd appreciate it!
