This is NOT a joke or a scam. I have personally signed up to receive these tests. They were sent directly to my house within four weeks of ordering them.
I have them all ready to go, if we should need to take advantage of their use.
The White House has not made an official statement about the availability of the tests, but I’m guessing they soon will.
However, the COVID.gov website was up and functional as of Monday to take orders for the free at-home COVID-19 rapid antigen tests.
About The Free At-Home COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Tests
According to the COVID.gov website, the tests available for order are also referred to as over-the-counter tests. They can be taken at home for yourself or another person.
These tests can be taken anywhere. Home, work, your car, on vacation. They are easy to just throw in your purse or bag, and have on-hand for peace of mind.
They will give you results in 15 to 30 minutes. No waiting for days on end for a lab to process the test.
Now, these at-home COVID antigen tests will work whether you have symptoms or not. So, if you are worried about passing COVID on to an elderly relative, you can take one of these tests before coming in contact with the individual.
When To Take An At-Home COVID-19 Antigen Test
Of course, anytime you begin to develop symptoms synonymous with COVID-19, you should take one of these at-home antigen tests.
That means you take a test if you have a fever, sore throat, runny nose, or loss of taste or smell.
You should also go ahead and take a test if you have come into close contact with anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19.
If you are going to be involved in a group or gathering of people, you should go ahead and test so you don’t pass COVID-19 on to other individuals.
