How COVID data will change after Biden's testing push
Fox News
Amid a surge of the omicron variant of the coronavirus, the Biden administration launched a new testing initiative last week, sending every residence four free rapid tests and requiring private health insurers to cover up to eight at-home tests per month for those on their plans.
While increased access to affordable at-home testing is imperative to halt the spread of the virus, questions regarding how this new push will shape the nation's understanding of pandemic data remain.
Leaders in several states say the omicron wave is seemingly slowing – although scientists predict it will not be the last variant of concern threatening the U.S.
Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker, for example, said last Tuesday that the state appears to be on the "back side" of omicron.
