Death-DeSantis administration says it let a million COVID-19 tests
expire in Florida warehouse



As many Americans struggle to get a hold of a COVID-19 rapid test or
secure a testing appointment, the Florida Department of Emergency
Management announced that as many as 1 million rapid tests expired while sitting in a warehouse.

During a press conference this week, Kevin Guthrie, director of Florida Department of Emergency Management, confirmed that between 800,000 to 1
million Abbott rapid COVID-19 tests had expired.

“We received a three-month extension on those test kits, which ended up expiring between Dec. 26 to Dec. 30. We tried to give them out
beforehand but there was no demand for it,” said Guthrie.

Guthrie said that after the test kits were extended once, an additional extension was requested, but the state had not yet heard back from the
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
