You can order them on the USPS site here: https://special.usps.com/testkits

Got ours!

This is a website to track US govt website traffic, and looks like even though it hasn't been up 24 hours yet 50 million people have visited- heard of some minor snafus, but nothing major. Pretty cool.

Also, funny but my folks both responded exactly as I expect them in anything remotely political- dad saying "of course, remember it's not 'free'- it probably costs quite a lot" and my mom worrying about what else the government will send once they know people's addresses. Because covid of course hasn't cost us anything so far, and the government doesn't already know where people live. Eh, all you can do is laugh.

Maybe they'll start sending out copies of 'The Fountainhead'.

Cool indeed. And now I know precisely how far Webb is from L2.

Nah that'd be too much nanny state. Better to send everyone a coupon for $5 off from any Ayn Rand novel on Amazon... not cumulative with any other discounts of course.

I had to order a prepaid label for work the day the covid test signup was released, and the website was so overloaded I wasn't able to. It's back to normal now!

FYI: a second set of tests is now available for order. https://www.covidtests.gov/

Thanks for the reminder!

We ordered them beginning of the week and got them about 3 days later. Far less demand this time around!
