1. Useful, since where I'm teaching is dropping the mask mandate...

Granted, I think we should do it at some point, but I think we should hold out a few more weeks. The case count is low, but the infection rate is rising, and is probably above 1.0 now.

I'm definitely going to keep wearing my mask through our upcoming finals week, and then re-evaluate when we return from spring break.

2. How we do know who this is?

This URL appears to be owned by Amazon. It doesn't appear to be the state of Washington government, though it is registered in the state of Washington, but then Amazon is headquartered here as well.

I'd have to know more before I give my personal information out.

3. At the bottom of the webpage it says -

A cooperative effort from state and local health departments, the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and community partners.


I've spoken to a few that have used this site and received kits. You just provide a name and address. I've ordered my two for the month of March.

I can't get any cost assistance thru my current insurance and have been paying out of pocket, when I can find them.

I ordered mine last Thursday and received them the next day.

5. The clinic where I work is giving away two test kits per visit up to eight while supplies last.

This is for both employees and patients. Of course, it would have been much appreciated a year ago.
