    4 per address.

    Per address.

    Multi family households? Multi-generational families? Young people and migrants living 3 to a room to save on rent? Homeless folks without a address?

    Who does this policy really benefit? The Biden administration continues their genocidal policies.

      A friend of mine lives in an apartment and it seems that they coded the complex as one address so one family that lives there can get it.

        Yeah, it's incredibly common. Which is why almost everything else goes by household, which doesn't include roommates or other people living on the same property.

        For "some" reason they went with residential address here, which coincidentally makes it so people with multiple properties can get multiple orders and people who have cheaper living arrangements are SOL.

        Edit: this also makes it so if you need a test, and someone on the property you live on ordered them before you. You will now have to go see them and ask for one of the tests and possibly give them the virus lol.

        It's not a big leap to think that's an intended consequence lol.

          What do you mean income tax owed? Someone at this address already paid!

      I honestly can't think of why it would be worded this way except to keep poors from getting them.

      Since they're available, they get to say they tried to help or something, while in reality they just put a big middle finger up to a huge chunk of the population.

      This administration actively wants poors to be in danger lol. It's past callousness, this shit is straight up hostile

      someone making 80k a year is going to design a pretty American flag design with working class silhouettes on the box the tests come in.

      I know when the kits actually arrive. If my stockpile of kits goes from zero to four, its an improvement. But I'm curious to see if he even gets them out in a timely manner, or if this is something that'll show up on my doorstep some time in mid-March.
