Americans can once again order free at-home COVID-19 tests from the federal government starting Thursday ahead of the upcoming respiratory virus season.
This is the third year in a row the Biden-Harris administration has allowed Americans to order over-the-counter tests at no charge.
Anyone wanting to order tests can do so at COVID.gov/tests. Four tests will be shipped free by USPS, starting Sep. 30.
Yes? Why shouldn’t it be? Lots of things should be covered for anyone, as they help the overall public health. $2 may not seem like a lot, but it is for some. And…if $2 isn’t a big deal, then why not have it covered since it won’t cost the taxpayer that much.
I’ll even go further and say that people who can afford it but wouldn’t otherwise bother might order them if they are free, which is a win for public health if even a few people ends up testing and preventing spread even a little
Exactly! Just ordered some in case I need to randomly test if I feel off. Wouldn’t spend the 20$ for that scenario.
