State Health Commissioner Dr. Kris Box says there are enough labs up and running across Indiana to do the number of necessary COVID-19 tests the state is aiming for -- 6,300 a day. But Box says there are still obstacles to actually conducting those tests.

Across the country, there have been shortages of COVID-19 tests. However, Carmel has taken an unusual step to keep residents safe. All city employees who deal directly with the public are being tested weekly -- even if they show no symptoms.

Data from the State Department of Health shows Indiana is testing fewer people for COVID-19 per 100,000 residents than all its neighboring states and the U.S. as a whole.

The number of COVID-19 tests available in Indiana is steadily increasing, according to state health officials, but testing services remain limited to select groups of people.

Indiana officials say the state's capacity to test people for COVID-19 is increasing, even as the growth in testing slowed over the last few days.
