We ordered from Covid.gov, but got a confirmation from USPS with our order confirmation. Seems to be intertwined. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenbunny Posted January 19, 2022 #5 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Articles said they would be processed by USPS - my thought process was maybe I bypassed a middle man.. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare msn123 Posted January 19, 2022 #7 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Can't use them for travel. Only the proctored version of the antigen test or a PCR test would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct - they are more like the pregnancy test.....swab your nose and put it in the test kit and see if it turns blue or pink. Just for people's personal knowledge but not official 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susiesan Posted January 19, 2022 #10 Share Posted January 19, 2022 No interest at all in ordering. I suspect many people are just because it is free stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We ordered as it is always good to have on hand in case one of us start having any symptoms..... rather have a test available at home then going to a test site 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ToxM Posted January 19, 2022 #12 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Here in the UK we have had these available to be delivered for some time. they are useful for when about to go somewhere like visiting elderly relatives or before a medical appointment. We fully intend to use these before our pre flight PCF’s for Barbados and also whilst out there pre cruise just to make sure we can be safe as we can (for us and others). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare msn123 Posted January 19, 2022 #13 Share Posted January 19, 2022 We have been invited to some events where the hosts have asked guests to test before they attend. These tests would provide a convenient way to do it. Had a sinus infection recently. My doctor wanted to know if I had been tested before he would prescribe an antibiotic. Just saying, while the tests only measure a point in time, they have some value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
