Illinois' Senior Senator says President Biden's plan of sending at-home COVID-19 test kits to Americans is 'way behind,' as cases of Omicron (OH-muck-rahn) skyrocket.

Last month, President Biden said his administration would buy a half a-billion at-home COVID-19 tests free of charge. However, Durbin said the Biden administration has been 'slow to respond' to supply chain issues related to at-home test kits.

Last week, the Biden administration finalized a 50-million-dollar deal with Goldbelt Security to deliver the first batch of at-home COVID tests.
