The process of ordering them has been simplified, and the tests arrive in the mail via USPS.

To date, nearly 350 million of the at-home COVID tests have been ordered and delivered.

On May 16, more than 95,000 new cases of COVID were reported in the U.S. COVID hospitalizations have also risen by 26 percent in the past two weeks.
