Ask HN: How hard is it to find a home Covid test kit in your city/country?

UK: Very easy. They're free, you can order one pack of 7 per day either online or for local collection. It's been this way for months and months.

I've heard there have been some availability problems recently but I don't know anyone personally who has had trouble getting a pack.

I am in NYC and I was able to get a test kit from an official city run testing site. It was free. Within my neigbourhood I have a lot of options for PCR and rapid testing. All free or cheap.

In Romania, I go to a pharmacy, and they have it for 30 RON ($7 or so). But it goes up to 100 RON ($23) during a COVID wave (right now, incidence is low).

Berlin: They've gone a bit up in price (~3€ per piece now) and for about a week 2-3 weeks ago they were not available everywhere.
