Before ordering an at-home COVID-19 test, make sure to:

  1. Check with your healthcare provider or insurance company to see if they cover at-home testing.
  2. Review the test's accuracy and reliability.
  3. Follow the test's instructions carefully to ensure accurate results.
  4. Keep in mind that at-home tests may not be as accurate as tests performed in a medical setting.

Remember, it's essential to follow proper hygiene and safety protocols when collecting your sample and handling the test kit to minimize the risk of contamination.

Stay safe and healthy!
