Free is almost always a good thing.

I recently received four more free Covid-19 tests in the mail thanks to the U.S. government.

In late September people could begin ordering more of these tests through this link.

I’ve taken several tests—before visiting friends, before returning home, after I’ve been in a crowded area, before medical appointments, when someone I know has been around people who’ve tested positive for the virus.

They are so easy to use, with results in a matter of minutes.

While there is an expiration date on the tests, the government has extended the time beyond what’s actually on the packaging. To find out if your tests are still valid, go online.

I know plenty of people don’t believe in vaccines, but what’s the harm in testing?
