Federal testing website launches next week, 4 tests per home

WASHINGTON (AP) — The federal website where Americans can request free COVID-19 tests will begin accepting orders on Wednesday as the White House looks to address nationwide shortages, but supplies will be limited to just four free tests per home.

Starting on Jan. 19, the website COVIDTests.gov will provide tests at no cost, including no shipping fee, the White House announced Friday.

The White House said “tests will typically ship within 7-12 days of ordering” through the U.S. Postal Service, which reports shipping times of 1-3 days for its first-class package service in the continental United States.

Officials said they are cognizant that any launch of a website carries some risks — and memories of the disastrous roll-out during the Obama administration of Healthcare.gov are still fresh — but said they believe they are well-positioned to handle expected demand for tests.

When the tests were first brought out that’s what they did. I don’t bother with psychopathic liars.

Does everyone now see the "thought" processes of Qtards? They link to clickbait blogs and throw tantrums when reality doesn't match with their fantasy, then they bring up irrelevant things to try to assuage their feelings.

And no matter how much they stamp their feet, the fact remains, this entire thread is all about the tests that can be shipped to people who want them. It has absolutely nothing to do with whatever tests were being used in 2019.

I'm not entirely sure why this is such a big deal anyway. If you don't want the tests, don't get them. No one is forcing anyone to order them. The OSHA testing mandate was just struck down as well. If you don't want them, so bet it. You don't have to order them. It's that simple.

These tests, as I have repeatedly shown from the instructions do not require the swabs to go more than 3/4 inch into your nose. I know that burns the Qtards inside and I know that it makes them angry that reality isn't lining up with what the twisted click-bait blogs are saying, but that's just the way it is.
