You won't be able to order tests until wednesday, but the site is live.

The White House has announced that people will be able to order free COVID-19 tests from COVIDTests.gov starting on Wednesday, January 19th. President Joe Biden promised in December that the government would set up a website to distribute 500 million tests.

To get a test shipped to you, you have to provide your name and address. The White House said the tests will be shipped through the US Postal Service within 7 to 12 days of ordering. The limit is four tests per address.

The only things people need to order their tests are their names and mailing addresses. The tests will usually be delivered in First Class through the U.S. Postal Service after 7 days of ordering.

The White House is on January 14, 2022.

A White House advisor said the site should be online by this weekend. The government has made that deadline, so you can visit COVIDTests.gov right now, but you won't have to use a credit card to take the test.

The USPS is not solely responsible for getting the tests to people. It was hired to develop a website that will have to deal with millions of people trying to get a test at the same time, according to Protocol. The report states that a government official said that the site didn't start from scratch and that it was taking the launch very seriously. Protocol says that the US Digital Service will be helping to launch the site.

Some have pointed out that some of the most vulnerable people could have difficulties getting online and navigating a website, given the government's less than stellar reputation with launching healthcare websites. The White House says that if you can't access the website, you will be able to call a hotline to order tests, and that the government will work with national and local community-based organizations to support the nation's hardest-hit and highest-risk communities.
