The Biden administration will once again provide US households with free at-home COVID-19 tests ahead of the colder fall and winter months.

Twelve domestic manufacturers have been awarded $600 million to
manufacture some 200 million new over-the-counter COVID-19 tests, which
will be made available to the public through COVIDTests.gov starting Sept.
25, the Department of Health and Human Services announced Wednesday.

Households may order up to four free tests, which are intended for use
through the end of the year and will detect the currently circulating
variants of the coronavirus.

�The Biden-Harris Administration, in partnership with domestic
manufacturers, has made great strides in addressing vulnerabilities in the
US supply chain by reducing our reliance on overseas manufacturing,� HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra said in a statement. �These critical investments
will strengthen our nation�s production levels of domestic at-home COVID-
19 rapid tests and help mitigate the spread of the virus.�

California-based healthcare products manufacturer iHealth received the
largest amount of federal outlays, $167 million, to produce the new tests.
New Jersey-based Access Bio is receiving the second-largest payment, $88.7 million, as part of the new program.

Advin, CorDx, Kwell Laboratories and Quidel are the other California-based companies receiving funding. Azure in Texas, InBios in Washington, Maxim
Bio in Maryland, OraSure Technologies in Pennsylvania, Sekisui in
Delaware, and Princeton BioMeditech in New Jersey, have also been awarded millions of dollars by the Biden administration to produce the new COVID
tests.

�Manufacturing COVID-19 tests in the United States strengthens our
preparedness for the upcoming fall and winter seasons, reduces our
reliance on other countries, and provides good jobs to hardworking
Americans,� Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response Dawn
O�Connell said in a statement. �ASPR�s investments in these domestic manufacturers will increase availability of tests in the future.�

The Biden administration�s latest initiative follows four previous rounds
of deliveries that provided over 755 million people with COVID tests free
of charge, according to HHS.

While the COVID-19 public health emergency was officially declared over in
May, public health officials nationwide have started to log a steady
uptick in cases of the virus.

�As we head into the fall and winter months, and once again see an uptick
in COVID across the State, I urge all New Yorkers to remember that COVID
is a treatable disease, and we now have an updated vaccine that will help reduce your chance of serious illness and hospitalization. Remember, it�s
about personal protection, personal prevention, and personal wellness,�
New York State Department of Health Commissioner Dr. James McDonald said earlier this month.

It was my understanding that the pandemic has been officially declared
over as of May 2023. This after the pandemic already being over for 6
months when the first shipments of free COVID testing reagent test kits
were shipped in January 2022. Why waste a half a billion dollars on
testing now� because the government already wasted the taxpayers money on
all of these 100�s of millions useless COVID tests in surplus that they
don�t know what to do with, so they plan to litter American mailboxes with
a cruel reminder of just how wasteful our government can be.

The pandemic is over but we are left with endemic Covid. Last time I checked the case numbers are going up. Deaths are continuing especially
among those who deny Covid and reject Covid vaccinations.
Covid-19 antibodies and metabolites are being detected in waste water
as sewage is processed.

What do you think otherwise would go into landfills?
Americans in WW II who had to separate their trash and indulge in metal collections for the war effort and use ration cards while
the Polio was running wild every summer laugh at your miserable
objections to sensible public health measures. Also our relatives
had to go off and fight many dying in the war. Of course their
are not many of us left who remember when the nation was pretty much
united against a Fascist enemy which murdered millions. Still we
think you who object are just silly-billies. Bliss is working on
her 87th year, thank you and remembers her dad's burial in 1939 and
Roosevelt's announcement that a State of War existed between the
USA and Japan and hence the rest of the Axis powers. Dad was in WW I.
