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.


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!

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

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!

Maybe there is a backlog?

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

They'll print more, no limit.

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!!

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.
