cnbc said that Amazon recently added a new feature to its Alexa voice assistant that lets you find the nearest place to get a Covid-19 test.It works on phones and through the Amazon Echo smart speaker. I think it’s best on a phone or on an Echo with a screen since it shows you a list of the nearby locations and how far each place is. Here’s what you do.
Alexa will return a list of nearby places using data pulled from GISCorps and other sources, such as Yelp. In my case, it showed eight places within 10 miles from me. If you tap a location, you’ll see a phone number you can call to confirm that there are appointments available, if one is needed
