SAN FRANCISCO— A Google-affiliated website intended to help direct potential coronavirus patients to testing facilities was quickly overwhelmed by demand Monday, just a few hours after it went live. The website, hosted by Google sister company Verily Life Sciences, launched late Sunday to potentially direct a small number of patients in Northern California for viral testing. By midmorning Monday, the platform appeared to have reached capacity, with users receiving notice that no more appointments were available.
