All the ones I've got from the government were made in the USA or South Korea.
I would be surprised if most people didn't realize South Korea is its own country.

For those wondering "Just How Accurate" are these tests, they are NOT perfect.
Not only false negatives, but also false positives, so if you did get a Positive rapid test result, you'll want to get a PCR test to confirm it isn't a false positive.
If you're feeling sick and get a negative rapid test, you'll want to continue to rapid test daily (initially, the viral load, amount of viruses in you, can be too low for the rapid test to say you're infected) for the next 2-3 days and/or PCR test.
Keep in mind that it can take a week or so between initial contact with the virus to when you've developed enough viruses in your body to trigger these tests.
(Just like a cold or flu. The moment a sick kid sneezes on you, you feel fine and maybe 1 virus enters your nose and you will still test negative. It's only a day or more later that the virus has replicated and you're dead sick and tests will indicate positive infection.)
And how fast is the expiration date?
Not accurate enough to bet on, but helpful in pointing you towards a pcr test.
