Title: More Covid Test Kits available
Post by: 02ebz06 on May 21, 2022, 02:36:29 PM
You can now order an additional 8 test kits (comes in two packs of 4).
Don't know why it is not on main USPS page.
At least I didn't see it, so i I did a search of Covid test kits to find it.

I believe that I read that they were available from select local drug stores.

I am signed up for the informed delivery on USPS that was how I first noticed the additional test. Then got an email about it as well from USPS

Looks like they are to be coming back for anyone interested. Does not say an exact date but the end of September possibly.

I have never bought any, but from what they said last week they were, $8 a test. 5 people in her one sister's family had it and 2 in the other sister's, they gave it to her, and she made me sick. All the rest of them were pretty much beat, I said I have a head cold, the only symptom out of the 10 you read off to me. I am sick and you did it to me, it doesn't matter what the sickness is, for this I will just take my usual cold medicine, a shot of scotch and a shot of nyquil before bed. I was good in about 4 days, she is still tired and has some aches.

I have to go for an EGD on Thursday, I called the doctors office yesterday and told them about all this, to see if they wanted to reschedule, she said no they will all be wearing masks so it won't matter and the covid recommendations have changed quite a bit you no longer have to stay away from people for a week it is one day now. That  is a big difference from what they had us believing and were telling us to do not long ago.
