NEEDLES, Calif. (KABC) -- One small town in the Inland Empire remains the only place in vast San Bernardino County that has not had a single confirmed case of coronavirus.

That place is Needles, a remote desert city of about 5,000 near the Arizona border.

Health workers tested 108 people during a drive-thru event last Tuesday.

Of those, 104 samples were negative, with four results still pending.
