😷 FREE COVID Test Kit....Part III 😷

U.S. Government Offering Twice As Many COVID Test Kits Via Mail

 

The U.S. government has doubled the number of COVID-19 test kits people can order for their household.

The government previously limited households to one order of four at-home rapid test kits, however, households can now order eight kits. The kits come in two packages and will be shipped free, according to the U.S. Postal Service.

 

People who have ordered previous test kits from the program are eligible for another round as well.

You can click here to order the kits via the USPS website.

Thanks for the heads up!!

 

My dad seems to be collecting these things so he will be very happy to get more for free.

I have tested prior to going to a family graduation get together as a precaution since I know you can be asymptomatic and I don't want to expose others.  I was just feeling bad..... I used the ones I had bought from Costco and will order these too.  I tested negative, but discovered that I felt really bad since my iron level was low and I got an iron infusion for that after evaluation by my hematologist.

 

Yes I may be overly cautious, but I don't want to be exposed and I feel responsible for my own actions around others.  

 

Just me.  Glad to get these.

 What I am  waiting for is for the  antiviral oral medication  made by Pfizer to be readily  available to all of us who need it as it was available to the rich famous  to take when they tested + for covid- no delay in their treatment, You can take all the tests that you heart desire but no oral  antiviral medication is available  quickly within a 48 hr window for millions of us citizens

All the Walmart Pharmacies in my area started carrying both the Paxlovid and Molnupiravir ativirals at the beginning of May.  With rollout across all the Walmart Pharmacies nationwide fairly quickly.
