U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Toula Farnsworth, a 354th Operational Medical Readiness Squadron medical technician, takes a simulated patient’s temperature while practicing administering a COVID-19 test Jan. 13, 2021, on Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska. It’s crucial for Farnsworth to maintain a sterile environment because not every patient that comes to the COVID-19 clinic will test positive. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Beaux Hebert)
