Americans Notice a Very Problematic Part About Those 'Free' Covid Tests the Government Is Sending Out

As Americans begin receiving their "Free" Covid-19 tests from the U.S. government, people have started to point out that their kits say they were Made in China.

"It's almost impossible to find a test at a pharmacy, you can only get them from the government in an ineffective time if you are sick and then they're from China? The people Joe Biden hasn't even held accountable in any way for what they've done regarding COVID? So is Joe Biden is making China rich with these"free tests?" This is just incredible.

It was awarded a $1.275 billion contract for COVID-19 rapid tests with the U.S. government on Jan. 13, according to the Defense.

A Biden administration official told Fox News that given the volume of tests needed, they couldn't all have been made in America.

"We are procuring as many US-made at-home tests as are available to purchase, while also purchasing additional, FDA authorized at-home tests that are made in other parts of the world," an administration official told Fox News Digital.

"Together this ensures that we are making available as many at-home tests for the American people as possible and importantly, we're doing so in a way that ensures we are not interfering with other channels where people can get at home tests, including through their states, pharmacies and online retailers."

In a statement, Sen. Rick Scott said it was "Unacceptable" that the administration "Would spend American taxpayer dollars on COVID tests from Communist China, which just goes directly to supporting General Secretary Xi and his genocidal regime, instead of supporting American manufacturers and jobs."
