This is a worldwide debate that even our medical professionals and leaders cannot fully agree on, so we're not going to solve anything arguing here on the deal forums.

These are the Roche kits. Roche needs to re-design their kits so they are easier to use like the Binax kits. But at least they are free.

I am on Day 9 of symptoms. Probably Omicron BA2. Tons of mucous and sore throat compared to the older variants. Took me 2 days after exposure to develop symptoms, then another 2 days of symptoms to test positive. So plan on burning through a lot of tests this time.
Super cool, took me 10 seconds to fill out

What is the issue with the design of the Roche tests?

Go herehttp://covidtests.gov/

Americans can once again order free COVID-19 tests from the federal government by visiting COVIDtests.gov. In this round, the U.S. Postal Service will deliver eight free rapid antigen tests to any household in the U.S. that wants them, according to the website.

The site suddenly appeared active Monday to offer the third round of free tests without a prior announcement.

This comes as COVID cases in the U.S. have risen more than 60% in the past two weeks and hospitalizations have begun to climb again as well.

Good offer for movie screenings now that some require a negative rapid test to enter!

Surprised the order went through. During the last round, mine was rejected, stating that I had already placed order for my address already.
