Yaaay..just got an email saying USPS will send a tracking number when it ships!

Big waste of time...their tracking numbers only tells you when it arrives.

I thought of that...but there has to be a few hundred or thousands of that same number and street.
I'll take your advice and shorten it up.

Well, they finally arrived.

Each box of tests costs about $20 on Amazon



Note: Made in China and expires in July

I heard they are going to test the Ground Hog tomorrow. If he tests positive, we will have 6 months more of Covid. If he tests negative, there will be an early spring.

There was ZERO guidance from the video proctors that there could be any risk. Scary.

I would be more concerned with the millions of tons of hybrid and Tesla batteries, lithium plus copper, nickel, and lead, and organic chemicals, such as toxic and flammable electrolytes containing LiClO4, LiBF4, and LiPF6. currently going into landfills.

Its the next DDT, lead, NiMh, Ni-CD, shortening, margarine and of course sodium azide.

Imagine all the lithium going into aquifers? All the worlds problems will go away and nobody will remember who they are but will be very sedate. Not to mention nervous system (including coarse tremor and hyperreflexia), kidney (including sodium-losing nephritis and nephrotic syndrome), and endocrine system (including hypothyroidism). Wait until they start sampling the upper atmosphere for lithium hydroxide?

It will all be a real life Idiocracy sans the electrolytes.

I didn't get mine nor any notice.

[red-beard]

I ordered on the 18th. The notice came the day before...

[A930Rocket]

I ordered them, but I haven’t seen them yet.

I’ve been feeling rough with headaches, chills, etc. and took a quick test I bought at the gas station. Came up negative.

The Ground Hog died…probably didn’t wear his mask and didn’t get the vaccine .

[Steve Carlton]

Costco has Flowflex 5-pack kits now for $39.99.

[stevej37]

Just got an email...the four free covid tests are due here today...usps.

usps offers 'Tracking Plus'...for a fee.
No Thanks.

[flatbutt]

Still haven't received mine.

[cabmandone]

I wonder how long they can be left outside in a mailbox before they're no longer any good. "Store between 35.6 and 86"

[stevej37]

just showed up now.

Skip the free test kits and go straight to the free crack pipes.

Free test kits?

I must suck at math. Oh wait its Government math. Why buy one when you can have two at twice the price.

So lets plug in those free numbers.

Biden is spending -

1. Abbott / Binax is supplying $306 million in free of tests.

2. iHealth Labs, a unit of the Chinese company Andon Health Co. Ltd., will supply $1.3 -2 billion in free COVID-19 tests

3.Quidel Corp., which has been awarded at least $636 million for its free antigen test kits.

4. OraSure Technologies Inc., which has so far signed $554.6 million worth of contracts to supply free tests.

5. Ellume awarded $33 Million for free test kits were recalled. At-home tests after reports of higher-than-expected numbers of false positive results.

Joe is planning on burning up $4.2 Billion dollars on testing, free test kits.

That's another $4.2 Billion to be printed up. You will be paying that debt indirectly, directly, via taxes, sales taxes, increased insurance costs and any other hole that can be found to insert it in.

Thanks!

For travelling you need to have the lab test .

[WPOZZZ]

I'm waiting for mine to arrive. Got 4 kits late last year because my ZIP was of interest in tracking Covid. Got 4 kits for the GF, too, same ZIP deal. My order got doubled, for some reason, and I have used up a lot of the tests due to exposure, and sent a few to friends that needed them.

[red-beard]

On the issue of the using these kits for travel. Most of them have a link where you log onto a website and then do the test under the direction of a person via video camera. The entire procedure is recorded.

Your results are then "official" and a certificate is e-mailed to you.
