Leave. Me. The. Hell. Alone..
They’ve had at home kits in Europe for a long time now. People would use them before family gatherings (my wife and I did them before going to my mother’s for Christmas last year).

But we have vaccines now so the whole thing is moot. The only reason to test now is when it’s a requirement for travel.
