Joe Biden has ordered the purchase of another 500 million COVID tests for subsequent free distribution to the country’s population.
In total, the authorities will give citizens 1 billion test drugs free of charge, which can be ordered at home or used at specialized points.
The corresponding decision was announced by US President Joe Biden at a speech at the White House last Thursday.
Next week we plan to launch a website where you can order a free test with home delivery,” a fragment of the American president’s address to the nation is quoted as saying.
The previously purchased stock of 500 million tests is planned to be increased by another 500 million copies.
All of them are intended for free distribution to the public.
Biden also promised to increase the number of Covid testing points, where it will be possible to find out the result in a short time.
At the same time, the head of the White House said that soon the country’s authorities plan to begin free distribution of high-quality protective masks No. 95.
