Malibu, California. After almost a decade of helping communities with problems abroad, Sean Penn joins the fight against the coronavirus much closer to home.

CORE, the organization of relief in situations of disaster, directed by the academy award winning actor, has teamed with the office of the mayor of Los Angeles Eric Garcetti and the fire department of the city to safely perform free testing of COVID-19 people with symptoms of the virus from their cars. He and his team, dressed in protective suits, are also managing tests in your city of Malibu.

Penn hoped that the program can save lives and alleviate the depletion of resources. CORE, which stands for Community Organized Relief Effort (Efforts of Organized Aid to the Community), took cards to help rebuild Haiti after the 2010 earthquake and the devastating hurricane Matthew.

The actor said that he and his team decided to pull the trigger very quickly to help manage the sites for testing.

We have an infrastructure in order to respond, so we decided that what we would do if we could be of added value, Penn said in an interview this week. It is something that we can adapt very quickly with the initial training of the Fire Department of Los Angeles. And then we can send back all those firefighters to help the people that need it on the road.

Until now, CORE has provided more than 6,500 free trials from the 30 of march. The organization is operating in four sites, with plans to expand and from the Friday given a new location in Los Angeles.

About 60 people are working on this initiative in California, including 10 volunteers of the Peace Corps (Peace Corps).

Make more people do the testing will help to ensure that angelenos receive the necessary care and flatten the curve more quickly to reduce the spread of the COVID-19, said Garcetti in a statement. We are working closely with these outstanding partners to expand access and increase the capacity and we are grateful to all the people who have taken a step forward to strengthen this work.

The deputy mayor of Los Angeles, Jeff Gorell, said in a tweet that the efforts of the CORE will absorb the workload of the fire department of the city and will be released to first responders for emergency services.

The majority of patients in the coronavirus suffer mild or moderate symptoms such as fever and cough, which disappears in two or three weeks. But some, especially the elderly and people with medical problems prior to this, can suffer more serious complications such as pneumonia, and even death.

Almost all recover from the new virus. According to the World Health Organization, those with mild symptoms will recover in about two weeks, whereas those with a more severe case could take three to six weeks to recover.

Penn hoped that other non-profit organizations and local governments also join to operate test sites. Meanwhile, he said that everyone should wash their hands thoroughly and often.

Wash hands because this is mostly hand to mouth, according to what we know, he said. (Your hands) have to be really crunchy, or they are not doing well.
