I know what the site said... 2 test per person per household. Well they sent 5 tests
Comments
How did they send 5 tests, when they came 2 to a box?
I chuckle at the notion that the gubmint provides anything for "FREE".
One Box with 5 in it
I heard on the news that they are recalling a BUNCH of these tests. They give inaccurate readings. ROFLMAO
do you have to do the * swab
Politicians will seek to control us with free things only as long as people accept them.

Are they made in China?? Trying to find someone who got a "free" one NOT made in China. Ole Joe said SOME were made in China, but I believe they were ALL made in China.
South Korea. Don
Clinitest .... Siemens Healthineers...Houston Texas... I opened the box up... pulled everything out... Had a little inspection piece of paper in Chinese with a Red Star in the center
Only the "positive" ones.
Government has to keep the fear narrative going.
If you weren't 'positive' before, you will be in about 7-10 days.
Says not to let them freeze or they are no good. I frose waiting for the mailman, nothing yet.
You're welcome Select.

Some will die in hot pursuit

Some will fall in love with life

I just hope they're not sending them to everybody. I presume if you want them, you have to ask. If they send them to me I will give them away.
"Made in China". Asked my Dr. about them Wednesday during my appt. ,he said not to trust them, not accurate. Guess I'll just sit on them for a while.
Good advise.
Sitting on them will not make them work any better! Don
unless they hatch.........
I guess I could test our dogs, cats and chickens
The first hurdle in the test was whether anyone believes it was actually free.

Someone step up on this forum that paid for it? Anyone?
No doubt.
I paid for it, against my will, but your welcome.
Paying taxes is better than the penalties ...you are welcome back
I pay for it all year. Then at the end of the year I file so they can tell me to pay more.
The general contractor, and the client I work for, got a bunch of these same tests.
Giving them to us. They want us to test ourselves every week, on the honor system.
They match exactly with the ones the wife unit got from Uncle Sugar.
Think we'll find out if the dog and livestock have the China Flu.
This yr will be a big payday for Uncle Sam.
7 to 12 days! has been 16 they will expire before they get here. If you want to mess something up put the government in charge.
Makes sense. That's where the virus came from.

If anyone believes that those 'free' tests are either free or legitimate, I know where there's some beachfront property in Arizona.
Ours were FREE
You can go online and order them. No charge. Shipped right to you.
Might stick one in my trucks radiator tomorrow and see the results...
More Free from our Govt.

I paid for four of them a few weeks ago. If I think I have the Covid again, I will go out and pay for some more. Begging Uncle Sam for anything I can handle myself goes against every fiber of my being.
Brad Steele
Your choice. Begging? Uncle Sam put up that FREE website for everyone.
If one should happen to get the "FREE" tests, when will you use them? Are you going to use one if you feel fine, just in case you might have caught something but have no symptoms? If so, you better test every day because you could have been exposed 20 min after you got a negative test. If you are a little under the weather do you really need a test to tell you to stay home and away from others? If you are really sick and need medical care, do you think the medical folks will rely on the results of your home test? If you are going to go visit Grandma, are you going to rely on the dubious accuracy rates from these tests?
IMHO these tests will be no more effective than the shutdowns that the new studies have shown had no appreciable effect on slowing the spread of the virus. I guess it is just some way of the government keeping us occupied and off balance, so we don't notice their extreme ineptness handling Covid. So test away everyone but if you have the sniffles and even if the test is negative, stay the hell away from me! Bob
Free to you but we are all paying for them in the form of a highly devalued dollar. More worthless government "smoke and mirrors".
I BOUGHT 4 of them last week. That was all they would allow me to PURCHASE.
