Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said one million expired COVID-19 test kits have been given an extension by the Food and Drug Administration and will be “sourced out” to health departments and other larger testing sites.
The governor said in a press conference on Jan. 12 that much of the information about the COVID tests has been reported “inaccurately.” He noted that the kits in question aren’t for “at-home” use, but come 40 tests to a box and are to be administered by a professional.
