Free Home covid tests in the mail?
I received two Binax tests via USPS today that I didn't order.

I have two QuickVue tests sitting on my shelf that the gov't sent out. Never used them and I expect they are expired.
Haven't heard of any new mailings.

I'm just making sure the young ladies in the New Jersey area are safe.

I think we've received about 14 in the mail, and we ordered them for free from some govt website.
I'd be leery of any that I hadn't ordered.

But you trust the ones the gov't. sends to you? What are the odds they're made in China?

The Gov ones we received weren't Binax, some off brand I'd never seen. Already expired.
But the Wife learned from her friend you can get them from Walgreens with your med insurance. She picked up 4 boxes (8 tests) no charge.
