Even if you’ve grown accustomed to a life without face masks, COVID-19 cases are still popping up across the country.
In January 2022, the FDA approved at-home tests that can accurately detect COVID-19. Regularly using these tests for school attendance, large indoor gatherings, and before seeing vulnerable individuals can reduce spreading the virus. While rapid tests were once hard to find, they've become more widely available and more affordable, in large part thanks to many brands who have replenished their stock online.
Whether you’re planning a trip before summer officially ends or attending a big family wedding, you can grab a number of reliable and easy at-home COVID-19 test kits at Amazon. To simplify the process, we’ve rounded up nine COVID-19 test kits below — all under $20.
