Hey everyone, they are suspending the ability to order free at home Covid tests after Labor Day. Go to covid.gov/tests to order more. I just put in another order and they are sending 8 tests (that means 4 boxes with 2 tests in each box) in 2 shipments (no, I don't know why) and it is just me in my household.

I suggest ordering as many as they will let you to get free ones while you still can!

Every home in the U.S. is eligible to order a 3rd round of free at-home tests. Order yours today.

Remember, not everyone soldiers the same. Some on boots on the ground battling. Some are building networks of support, resistance, and plans. Some heal. Some plan the future. Most will do multiple kinds of things at different times as they are able.
