The website for free at home Covid tests is now live

Each household is entitled to 4 free tests:

The Biden administration’s new website allowing people to order up to four free at-home coronavirus tests quietly went live on Tuesday — a day in advance of its formal launch — and demand already appeared to be significant.

A combined total of more than 1 million visitors were on the home page and the ordering page of covidtests.gov at one point Tuesday evening — more than 40 times as many as were on the government site with the next highest traffic, the U.S. Postal Service’s package-tracking page, according to analytics.usa.gov, which monitors traffic on participating federal websites.

The website might be a bit twitchy, it is getting hammered right now.

Four tests! That's enough to last my family for...two weeks. At most. And as I understand it, that four tests you get is your lifetime quota.

In England they send seven tests at a time, and you can request more as often as you wish.
