Why order COVID-19 testing kits so you can test at home?

Able SC's very own Jerri Davison shared her story, "When my daughter got sick, having a home test ready and available allowed my family to contain COVID from spreading in our home. I'm at higher risk of getting very sick because of my depression, and my mom, an older adult, also lives with us."
