Test-to-Treat Program Launched by White House

Also in Coronavirus news, Antiviral medication orders for the White House’s Covid-19 Test-to-Treat program are underway. Yesterday more than 1,000 in-pharmacy clinics across the U.S. registered to participate in the initiative and ordered shipments of Covid-19 antiviral medications which exceeded expectations for the program. The White House announced the Test-to-Treat initiative last week during it’s unveiling of the ‘National Covid-19 Preparedness Plan.’ Under the initiative, people can visit ‘one-stop’ sites that offer free Covid-19 testing and prescribe free antiviral medications on the spot if they test positive.
