There are warnings about the spread of the covid-19 virus along with the flu and the respiratory syncytial virus during the winter season. The US government is restarting a program that it canceled in September of 2022, and is once again offering free home rapid antigen tests to all US households. The government website states that orders will start shipping the week of December 19th.

There is a website called COVIDTESTs.gov. You can order free at- home tests. You can go to special.usps.com/testkits if you don't see the button for any reason. If you would like to receive notifications, fill in your email address and shipping address. You can check out now by clicking on the green button. You will be asked to confirm your information in a pop-up window. Click on the green place my order button if everything is correct.
