AMAZING—The US government will relaunch a program to provide free #COVID19 home tests starting Monday September 25th, 2023. Officials say the tests are able to detect the latest variants. In other words, the US govt admits that #CovidIsNotOver. The return of the free testing program comes after Americans navigated the latest uptick in covid cases with free testing no longer widely available. The largest insurance companies stopped reimbursing the costs of retail at-home testing once the requirement to do so ended with the public health emergency in May. Experts say free #COVID testing proved to be an effective public health tool, allowing people to check their status before attending large gatherings or spending time with older or medically vulnerable people at risk of severe disease even after being vaccinated. It also enables people to start antiviral treatments in the early days of infection to prevent severe disease. wapo.st/3ZtV4qr covid.gov/tests
