"US Government Provides Free COVID Tests Delivered to Your Doorstep"

The U.S. government is offering another round of free at-home COVID-19 tests to Americans in time for the holiday season. Insurance companies are no longer required to cover the cost of COVID testing, making the availability of free tests crucial. Every U.S. household is eligible to order four free tests, and those who missed out on the previous round can place two orders for a total of eight tests. To order, visit COVIDtests.gov and fill out the form. The tests will be shipped for free via USPS. It's important to note that at-home tests are rapid antigen tests, which are less accurate than PCR tests. Precautions such as testing before gatherings, practicing social distancing, and getting vaccinated are recommended to reduce the risk of transmission during the holiday season.
