Coronavirus test appointments scheduled for Tuesday at Union Station were canceled after Miramax was granted a permit to film there, officials confirmed late Monday night.

A coronavirus testing site at Union Station was open for business today, following a cascade of criticism from activists who lashed out at the city and Mayor Eric Garcetti upon learning the site was set to be shuttered for the day, allegedly to accommodate a film shoot.

According to Deadline, the film shoot will go on as scheduled on the Union Station South Patio while the coronavirus testing is being held at the station's testing kiosk. "The 504 Angelenos who were scheduled for a test there can visit the kiosk as originally planned or any of the other 14 City sites, where we offer 38K tests daily", his tweet reads.

After news broke that the testing would be halted for the She's All That remake shoot, in turn canceling over 500 scheduled appointments, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti took to Twitter to do damage control.

Ironically, Los Angeles county imposed a three-week stay-at-home order on Monday, banning gatherings with anyone outside of residents' homes. "City sites offer free tests to anyone with or without symptoms and results are provided within 24-48 hours".

According to reporting from Deadline, Los Angeles residents who had coronavirus test appointments scheduled Tuesday received an email informing them of the shutdown.

Garcetti was at the center of backlash Monday night after it was revealed by Deadline that the "She's All That" reboot was responsible for shutting down the popular COVID-19 testing center.
