BOISE, Idaho — National Guard troops are directing people outside a Boise urgent-care clinic revamped into a facility for coronavirus patients. Health officials say Idaho’s attempt to hold the coronavirus in check is failing as infections and deaths surge. Inside Primary Health Medical Group’s clinic, physician assistant Nicole Thomas works extra 12-hour shifts. Primary Health officials say they’ll turn three more facilities into COVID-19 clinics by Dec. 30. More than 1,000 people have died from the coronavirus in Idaho.
