Default Covid home test kits
I had purchased two about 2 months ago not looking at where it was made. Guess where..China

So to the garbage they went.

Gee, are those as useful as the drive-thru kind? Don't you need an odd number of kits to determine if you have it or not?

You need as many kits as it takes to ensure a positive result

Bought two "Made in the USA" kits Friday because my boss was confirmed positive the day before. Took one. Showed positive. Went to the doc to verify the result. Their quick test showed negative. So they did a third and sent it to the lab. Came back negative also. So much for home test accuracy.
