Good news, everyone! Just as Kamala Harris promised, the COVID tests have been ordered and they’re gonna go out shortly!
There’s just one little hitch:
NEW: Starting January 19th, Americans will be able to order their tests online at https://t.co/KbPeHSrVih, and tests will typically ship within 7-12 days of ordering, per WH

Get your covid test in more than double the amount of time the CDC recommends you isolate for. https://t.co/dYLiifOGjQ

Not exactly:
Oh wait, it says SHIP in 7-12 days, not DELIVERY in 7-12 days.

*Within 7-12 days of ordering. So you could be looking at a few weeks, at least.
Thank God the adults are back in charge, huh?
I suppose you need to order them preemptively? Good to know.

Pure government efficiency

So, if you get sick today, and order through the Federal govt, you will get your test…AFTER YOUR QUARANTINE PERIOD IS OVER.
And that is with the old 10 day quarantine!
Man, our Federal govt is garbage. Unadulterated pure garbage. https://t.co/jE4TehwmnD
