The cost of testing

The average cost of a single at-home rapid COVID test is about $12 in the U.S., more than twice the cost of a test in France and more than three times as much as in India, according to research by Axios’ visuals team.

-Meanwhile, places like Canada and the U.K. make tests available for free.

-However, health insurers in the U.S. will be required to reimburse costs for up to eight over-the-counter tests per covered person per month over-the-counter COVID tests starting this Saturday.

Note: Prices vary within countries. France and Malaysia prices reflect legal price caps. Data: Axios research; Chart: Axios Visuals
