I get the feeling that Amazon won't ship that to an American address unless approved by the FDA.

If they do, I bet there will be some dumb asses that buy a 1000 and cause a shortage

Probably someone from China, just like they did with N95 masks all over the country before it hit here. We were screwed from the beginning.

Yeah, Im not trusting some test off of Amazon. Some enterprising shyster in China will be selling fakes in no time.

The development of these were paid for by the UK, apparently. It's not snake oil from China.

Who said anything about cheap. This is British National Health Service purchasing tests and distributing a test through Amazon. It isn't going to go to anyone outside of the UK.

It must depend on what you're ordering. Most of my items are getting here in less than five days.
