I read that you could get more COVID tests from the government for free. Up to 8 per person in fact so having just had COVID and used up all I had I ordered 8 for me and 8 for my wife.
They came August 13 and they all had an expiration date of 9/7/2022.
So Basically they have a remaining shelf life of 3 weeks. And then most people would throw them away.
Stupid government.
So actually the printed expiration date on COVID test kits has been extended after testing has proven they have longer shelf lives than initially expected. A fact that most people don't know. Looking up the FDA list the kits I have have been extended dates to 12/7/22. They were manufactured in January 2022 so even with the date extension more than 65% of the shelf life is gone. Is anyone at the government checking this stuff? Is there any intelligence at the federal level?
The whole issue of expiration dates sets me off anyways.
