Households can now order eight more free at-home coronavirus tests, the White House said Tuesday, giving Americans access to an additional supply of rapid tests ahead of possible summer and fall surges.

“As the highly transmissible subvariants of Omicron drive a rise in cases in parts of the country, free and accessible tests will help slow the spread of the virus,” the White House said in a statement. The tests are available at covid.gov/tests.

The Biden administration previously committed to making 1 billion at-home tests available to American households at no charge and has so far distributed 350 million tests.

You want to be sure to get your tests before the fall mail-in voting season rush.

Just wondering - is there actually an approved test for covid? Or, is it just the an iteration of the previous test that couldn’t differentiate between covid and influenza?

Everything is free. My local supermarket has free bottles of disinfectant spray in bins near the checkout.

Not even by gunpoint.
My 2nd shot had me unable to solve even simple problems for almost 2 months.
Back to normal now but never again.

The only reason to do this is to have more “positives” so DC can claim a news variant for mail in ballots. Period.

Because testing does squat..

If you are sick and test positive, you are sick. If you are sick and test negative, you are still sick.

If you are not sick and are testing yourself, you are just stupid.

Whoever heard of a Summer Surge of a respiratory virus? Unless maybe this virus was created in a lab or something?

Yup—along with a “Donate to Ukraine”, “Donate to BLM” and “Donate to George Soros” addressed and stamped envelopes.
