Duh ** -- Brown Water 12/21/2021 12:10PM

Yeah - good clarification. 'Free' is thrown around too loosely. ** -- vt90 12/21/2021 11:50AM

Free = not immediately out of pocket ** -- TomTurkey 12/21/2021 12:19PM

Could you point out who isn't aware? I don't see it. I see people -- jmanatVT 12/21/2021 11:25AM

I got a flu shot this morning - does that count? ** -- bigbadbird 12/21/2021 10:26AM

Noticed my CDC card says I get a free cup of coffee and a car wash after 10 -- vt90 12/21/2021 09:14AM

I told the pharmacist when I got my booster "see you again in a few months" ** -- capitals1 12/21/2021 09:48AM

The IV drip is gonna be awesome. Invest in portable IV poles now. ** -- HokieGator 12/21/2021 10:05AM

I get a flu shot every year - I suspect this will be similar going forward -- vt90 12/21/2021 09:54AM

In January home covid testing will be free -- capitals1 12/21/2021 10:50AM

How on earth will these be effective for 330000000 people -- PhotoHokieNC 12/21/2021 11:09AM

By my calculations, less than 2 days ** -- AlaHokie83 12/21/2021 6:43PM

They're already widely available for free (in many cases) or to purchase -- JoesterVT 12/21/2021 10:59AM

It is my understanding the ones in stores you purchase and then -- capitals1 12/21/2021 11:01AM

Nah...stores have the "at home" rapid kits, even Amazon has them... -- JoesterVT 12/21/2021 11:05AM

Nope - and that isn't the point. -- vt90 12/21/2021 10:22AM

But testing for active infection is FAR more important for public health -- JoesterVT 12/21/2021 10:25AM

I never said that - free and readily available tests are very important -- vt90 12/21/2021 10:34AM

Agreed, but I'd add 2 more things -- jmanatVT 12/21/2021 10:32AM
