Newly manufactured BinaxNow test kits are rapidly entering the market on a daily basis. Abbot labs has scaled manufacturing and is producing more than 10 million tests per month and continuing to increase capacity. The US government placed an order for 180 million test kits and Colleges, professional sports, school districts and private business have a need for more than additional 100 million.

The original test kits had a shelf life of 6 months, that has been extended to one year by the FDA and is retroactive to existing tests.

The best value per price is through eMed, you get 6 tests for $150 and about $15 for overnight shipping. For the 2 of us on our most recent trip, we took 3 tests with us in case a test was corrupted or showed a positive result, that way we could retest immediately.
