The Corona Virus is running so rampant in the Birmingham Area and the Flu is in full swing, so here are a few helpful things to remember to do when you are trying to stay well. If you think that you have been exposed to the Corona Virus and think that you need to be tested, remember Mills Pharmacy in Leeds. They have a free curbside test.
