6:00 pm
day, but our seven-day positivity average has decreased. it is 21.1%. we have seen record-setting demand for covid-19 tests because of the omicron variant. today, the government launched its website offering for free tests to everyone in the country, and your insurance company is now required to reimburse you for fda approved at home tests. santa clara county is finally reporting some relief on its testing infrastructure. dustin dorsey explains how a few key factors are helping make testing more accessible in the south bay. dustin course -- dustin: disneyland lines without the fun of the -- that is what it looked like at testing locations hope. >> as of this morning, there were spots available at our san martin site as soon as tomorrow,
6:01 pm

6:03 pm
>> after people order their tests here online, they can inspect them -- they can expect them at their front door in seven to 12 days. tim: the federal government is picking up the cost, so ordering them is free, but some health experts say it is to little, too late. dr. gandhi is an infectious disease expert at ucsf. she says while she supports people using the tests, it would have had more help if the government had been issuing them before the omicron surge. >> if the tests are coming right now, that simply is not enough time. if we had them before, we could have helped schools stay open, for example. tim: the tests will be antigen test's, similar to the ones sold at convenience stores. >> ozark the tests to test out early from isolation. if you already have covid and you're just wondering when you are no longer infectious.
6:04 pm
-- those are the tests to test separately from isolation. the other test, the pcr test, is so good at picking up virus, even little pieces of dead virus, that it is going to testt long after you are infectious to others. tim: dr. gandhi says she is worried it is not enough. the biden administration initially announced it had purchased 500 million test with the new program but recently said it planned to buy one billion in order to meet demand. >> here is that website for free tests. it is running as part of a beta phase ahead of the formal rollout tomorrow. there is a banner on the site saying to check tomorrow if you run into any issues today. people are reporting issues,
