Even as the coronavirus infection rate continues to decline in Los Angeles thanks to the vaccine, an in-home Covid test may still be important when it comes to preserving the health and safety of yourself and your loved ones.
Why Is Testing Still Important After Vaccination?
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Covid testing is still crucial in certain situations, primarily for people who are not yet fully vaccinated. Not surprisingly, if you are showing possible symptoms of the illness it’s a good idea to get tested regardless of your vaccination status. So-called “breakthrough” cases are rare but they do occur.
Benefits of At-Home Covid Tests
Getting tested for Covid at home, compared to other places, comes with an abundance of benefits. First and most importantly, it allows you to avoid being near other potentially sick individuals waiting at a testing site or medical building. Secondly, it saves you time from having to drive to a testing facility and facing traffic. Getting tested at home is much more convenient and safer.
