Free Covid Home Tests - "Where Art Thou"

[DALEPQ]

Ordered the free Home Covid Tests the very first day that they could be ordered.
Got a confirmation # from USPS.
Still waiting to get the tests.
The "Media" states over 50 million have been delivered.
What has been the experience in T.V. getting these tests.
We don't seem to have symptoms, that would require us to get tested elsewhere.
But, would like to have the home tests, just in case we need to test.

[Kenswing]

Received ours weeks ago.

[tophcfa]

We got ours six days after order placed?

The "Media" states over 50 million have been delivered.
Yours should be in the next batch of 50 million. :)

UPDATED FEBRUARY 16, 2022 6:49 PM

So far, 50 million orders of at-home tests have been shipped to American households across the country, White House COVID-⁠19 Response Coordinator Jeffrey Zients said during a Feb. 16 briefing. Specifically, 200 million individual COVID-19 tests have been sent out, he said. “85 percent of the initial orders are now out the door,” Zients added. “And in the next several days, we will complete the shipping of all of the initial orders.”

We ordered ours the first day as well and got them yesterday

[themartianchick]

I placed 3 back-to-back orders for tests for people living in 3 different households. Those orders were placed on the first day of the program. One person is still waiting for hers to arrive. It doesn't seem to matter when the orders were placed or be based on alphabetical order. (Every order was for family members and we all have the same last name!) The second order arrived last weekend.

[Foxtrot]

Got ours yesterday, they are made in South Korea.

[wisbad1]

You can buy them from people at mail station lol

[JMintzer]

Ordered the day before it was announced. Still waiting...

[Mrprez]

Didn’t order, not waiting.

[HIgolfers]

We ordered the first day possible. Got them about a week later.

[MrFlorida]

Got ours weeks ago, also got some from CVS before I knew they were sending in mail. If you find you need let me know happy the share

[vagent711]

We got ours. They said made in China
Maybe there is a backlog?

[mlmarr]

relax how many flu test kits do you really need, nothing is free look around at the increase in prices everywhere.. sounds like your trusting the wrong person for your health.. kits made in China.. how's that working for you.

[Gerrir]

Costco is selling rapid tests for 39.00 so they have real value. I do not know how many are in their kits. I have not received mine nor a verification of my order and I also ordered on the first day. Where are they?

[westernrider75]

I also ordered the first day and just got mine on Wednesday. They comes priority mail.

[rjn5656]

Got mine last week in the mail.

Received mine

[Tudor49]

I also ordered them the first day. I just received them yesterday. So it seems to take sometime.

Best response on this thread. However, look at the huge percentage of posts on here already that state "I ordered on the first day". I wonder how many of those people have posted on other threads "What's the rush, you're retired?":1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

[La lamy]

Got mine. Hope you weren't robbed by another bad apple at the post station.

[CaptainMeso]

Funny, we ordered ours the same time and haven't received ours either.
Statement in the website says "transportation issues".

Thanks. Wake me up when they restart the free cheese program. I like cheese.:icon_wink:

What a government waste of money…..

[MDLNB]

Got ours two weeks ago. Not sure how good they are. My doctor said he wouldn't consider them a valid test for him to prescribe treatment for Covid. We've had our shots and we both have just survived Covid by treating it with cold medicine. Followed the test instructions exactly and tested positive. That was two weeks ago, right after receiving the test kits. Wife swears we just had colds. But, that is how our kids and grandkids reacted when they had covid before the vaccines were available. They tested positive back then and said they just felt like they had colds. None had serious symptoms. Of course, they aren't old codgers like us, either.

I received 5 test kits Monday. I ordered mine the first day as well. I'm not sure why they sent an extra one.

[Gunny2403]

Received mine 5 days after order placed

[coconutmama]

Ordered 1st day. Received them weeks ago.

[JMintzer]

Seems they're arriving just in time for people to no longer need them...

Maybe they figured that only one out of five prove to be accurate?



Just kidding, so don't take offense...:a040:

Made in China the origin of the pandemic. Anybody see the connection here? :)

Just like the free masks.

[JimmyO3]

We got ours a couple of weeks ago

[Waltdisney4life]

Fake news!

[buttonhut]

Mine shipped yesterday

[merrymini]

What a waste of time and money! Ordered them because my pregnant daughter in law requested we test before we see the baby. Propaganda USA. Friends in NJ ordered on first day. Nada.

Same thing here. Ordered 12/20 and still waiting. Sent inquiry to USPS three days ago. Still waiting! The USPS must be responsible for distribution. My son in California ordered them and received them in 6 days. Good luck!

[MDLNB]

Don't worry folks, the US Postal system is handling it.....

[DaleDivine]

Received mine 5 days after order placed

Me too.. Mine was made in Republic of Korea...
:pray::pray:

[OhioBuckeye]

We got ours 2 days ago & ordered them the 1st day. Are you in a hurry because you have Covid? Otherwise what’s the hurry! Just be patient!

[Speedie]

We got ours. They said made in China
Maybe there is a backlog?

What a deal. China makes the virus then sells us the tests

[Cheiro]

Received ours weeks ago.

I just got mine yesterday. Be patient, they will come.

We ordered our a month ago and just came today.

[Geodyssey]

They'll print more, no limit.

[Stryker]

I got them within 2 weeks, but they are made in China. No I have to ask myself, do I want to stick anything up my nose that was made in China? What is the government thinking?

We got ours back 5 days after ordering on the first day. Couldn’t believe how fast they came!!

[WindyCityzen]

Got mine Thursday.

[Michael G.]

Didn’t order, not waiting.

You should cuz it's your tax $$$$$.

If you need a test at a clinic or hospital, they wouldn't trust the home test,
You will be tested again by them paid for by your insurance.

Also ordered mine very first day the were available and like you I got confirmation email that we would have them end of January. Here we are mid February and no tests, but I haven’t checked mail in a few days. I have no issues but still work like them just in case.

Lots of things I disagree with is paid for with my tax dollars. If these test kits could cure you of Covid there might be some value. If I get sick, I will quarantine and go to the doctor if required.
