So far, the USPS said that it has delivered more than 270 million COVID-19 tests to American households as part of President Biden’s plan to distribute free at-home tests to Americans for free.
The postal service reported that over 68 million test kit packages (with four individual tests per kit) have been shipped to American households across all states, tribes and territories.
Postal officials said it takes about 1-2 days for the post office to deliver a test kit once it has been received from the manufacturer, kitted, and entered into the mailstream.
