That might not be far from the truth. My big question is what is on the swab. It’s just odd to suggest healthy people not showing symptoms to keep getting tested.

To help ensure Americans have tests on hand if a need arises, the Biden Administration is purchasing one billion at-home, rapid COVID-19 tests to give to Americans for free.

Where did Biden get the money?

Free, my ass. It cost Trillions.

No way, Jose.

At this point, I wish I never got a SS#

This sounds like a good way to hype the case numbers.

MIL sounds like me.

I just want to outlive Hillary Clinton so I can spit on her grave.

You don’t send anything in. You swab your nose or your cat’s ass, dunk the swab in a little test tube of reagent, then drop a certain number of drops in a little hole in the test strip.

You wait 15 minutes, and if a red line shows up on the strip, it’s a positive. All in your home and you don’t have to report it to anyone, positive or negative.

I don’t have anything to claim. I use the short form each year, and have been fortunate to get my refunds without delay. I just sent my 2021 form in a week or so ago, so we’ll see how long it takes. I resisted direct deposit for many years, but last year opted for it, so I’ll keep my fingers crossed. Hope you hear from them soon.

I don’t think the government is asking it, but some workplaces are. My husband went back to on-site work with a full staff only recently, and they needed a test before that.

You can leave me out of any Biden nose swab.

They will not be getting my DNA that easy, to send it to the Chinese communists.

Isn’t it too late by now?

Could there be a connection between Biden's rapid CV19 tests and "stealth" vaccination?
Johns Hopkins University confirms: You can be vaccinated with a PCR test, even without knowing (2.12.22)

Search links suggest that rapid test and PCR test are not the same thing.

Corrections, insights welcome.

I prefer to keep my tax dollars and forgo receiving the test.

He needed to say he did something. People will forget that the timing was laughable.

You don’t send it anywhere. You just do it, for your own knowledge.

This is because they don’t want the epidemic to be over, like it should be. “Little O” leaves behind immunity.

Perfect idea.

What a complete boondoggle. Billions transferred to China for what? Tests that are, practically speaking, no where needed.

Welp, a lot of trash for the landfills I suppose.

Your tax dollars already paid for it, whether you use it or not.
