Throw the tests away.
You don’t anxiously test for the seasonal flu, you don’t need to test for Covid.

I wish I saved the YOUTUBE link of people showing how to get a day off from work by exposing the rapid Covid test to Orange Crush to get a positive test result (blue stripe).

They aren’t free. Taxpayers are forced to pay for them.

Seems like someone with ties to the Bidem Administration is using this as an opportunity to get some dollars from taxpayers.

We ended the state of emergency due to covid so there should be a congressional hearing on this matter.

When testing was the thing, if you had Covid symptoms, you were expected to isolate for a number of days, 10 IIRC, from when you first started showing symptoms if you didn’t test.

However, if you took the test part way through the illness, and it was positive, then you were also expected to isolate for 10 days from the last positive Covid test, which could potentially require you to isolate for up to three weeks.

So why would I want to risk testing near the end of the course of the illness in the event it showed positive and I had to start the 10 day isolation all over again?
