For many years the cold and flu season was something that we Texans just make sure to keep an eye on until mid-2020 when the coronavirus came. As a person who also has experienced COVID-19, I can tell you if I had to describe COVID-19, it’s the flu, but 40 times worse. Of course, we’re all aware of the dangers that lie when it comes to COVID-19 so as we get prepared for a flu season, Texans really need to be ready.

LETS STAY PREPARE HERE IN TEXAS

According to the Texas Tribune not just in Texas but Americans will be able to order up to four free COVID tests and can have them delivered at their door steps. United States Department of Health and Human Services paused the program last year but has now resumed orders on the website starting on September 25. I can’t stress to Texan why is this just so important. We’ve all seen exactly what coronavirus is capable of and we don’t want to fall victim to the Heynis virus. Let’s make sure this flu season Texans are properly prepared for COVID-19 and let’s not forget to update our vaccine test which will be free as well. Stay safe out there, Texas.
