  I don't consider at-home tests a Big Breakthrough.  There have been too many false positives/false negatives provided to give anyone any reassurance of the validity of the testing.  Just another expense!  I've known too many that have gotten negative results and they still worry or have another in-office test administered.

@GAKKIEZ , my daughter liked/likes the COVID home tests. I don't.

She has had COVID in Florida.

Knock on wood I have NOT here in Virginia. But we are back to the 2020 drama here thanks to some folks not feeling a need to be careful. Lol, groups INSIDE, not me. OUTSIDE or you are not seeing me.

Glad there are still options.

Hate going to the labs these days = long lines and bad attitude employees. But I rather go. So hopefully I get a correct result.
