The Biden administration on Monday said it is offering another round of free at-home Covid tests to U.S. households ahead of the holiday season, when more people gather indoors and the virus typically spreads at higher levels.
Starting Monday, Americans can use COVIDtests.gov to request four free tests per household. Those who have not ordered any tests this fall can now place two orders for a total of eight tests, according to the website.
The administration in September allowed people to request an initial round of four free tests through the site, resuming a federal program that temporarily shut down during a political fight over Covid funding.
Thought I was asymptomatic until I caught it a month ago.
Twice I’ve been the only person in a group that didn’t get covid. I should have at least tested positive but had no symptoms, but no. There was two weeks I was the only healthy person in the office. Now RSV and colds, I get them constantly. One element my doctor said is due to my exposure to military burn pits and internal scarring as a result, covid might not even be able to get into the spots it likes to grow.
