CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa. - A Conshohocken company is designing a new kind of COVID-19 testing site and it’s on wheels.
When the pandemic hit, Larry Borden, the founder and CEO of Aardvark Mobile Tours had to change his fleet that was originally built for marketing companies at big events. “I read an article that Israel was taking shipping containers and placing them all around the country to do testing,” said Borden. “One of the issues is that they need cranes to move them and they didn’t have electricity.” Borden knew his team could do better, building COVID-19 testing trucks that are air conditioned for nurses and separate them from patients by a glass shield.
