Blind and low-vision people can order one set of two free, more accessible at-home tests from USPS.com (while supplies last). <a href="https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=26407&qid=7317092" target="_blank">Order online through https://special.usps.com/testkits</a> or by calling 1-800-232-0233. Each order will include two rapid-antigen tests and will ship free, while supplies last.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-size:14.0pt;color:black'>Because of limited supply, we ask that you only order the more accessible tests if you do not have other testing options. To use the tests, you must have a compatible Bluetooth-enabled smartphone and download and install a free app from the Apple App Store (for iOS) or Google Play Store (for Android). The test works with the app to provide audio step-by-step instructions for administering the test and audio test results.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p><span style='font-size:14.0pt;color:black'>Per the Administration of Community Living, this initiative complements the <a href="https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=26409&qid=7317092" title="Administration’s efforts">Administration’s efforts</a> to expand production of more accessible tests and work with private sector partners on the development of new accessible tests.</span><o:p></o:p></p><h2><span style='font-size:20.0pt;color:black'>Additional Resource </span><o:p></o:p></h2><p><span style='font-size:14.0pt;color:black'>The <a href="https://nfb.org/civicrm/mailing/url?u=26396&qid=7317092">Disability Information and Assistance Line (DIAL)</a> is an additional resource, connecting people with disabilities to COVID-19 vaccination and testing in their communities.
