#MEAction and Body Politic collaborated last spring, with a new national telehealth program, Home Test to Treat. We are now able to share initial findings from the program!

  • 40K + test distributed
  • 6K + individuals treated for COVID-19 or flu
  • 5.6K+ organizations contacted
  • #MEAction and Body Politic were one amongst a handful of formal social media collaborators
Here is the 2-page Finding Summary:

You can still get 4 free at-home COVID-19 tests here!

We send our thanks to everyone who shared information about this program to their friends and family and/or personally participated. Spreading knowledge and increasing involvement, helps to show government agencies these types of programs are worth the investment.  #MEAction and Body Politic believe programs like these are valuable and we hope to see more in the future.

Our involvement in this national program is something we don’t take lightly. We hope to continue to build upon these relationships to ensure our community is informed and able to partake in these types of programs moving forward. We are looking forward to what new opportunities will come in the new year.
