Hospitals and mobile COVID-19 testing centers are overwhelmed as infection numbers continue to rise all over the world. Amazon has several options, but we found one at-home test that includes prepaid express return shipping back to the lab with guaranteed results within 24 to 72 hours of sample receipt.

Although the CDC suggests that you should always opt to wear your mask while in public, face shields provide an added layer of protection when with various touchpoints while in the airport.
These full-length face shields are transparent, waterproof PET, which
deflects droplets, saliva, and other liquids and sprays from making contact with your face.
This is especially important since researchers have suggested that COVID-19 may be transmitted through our eyes.
The lightweight visors feature a wrap-around design so that the sides of your face are covered, and they won’t fog up, even with your mask.
UV Smartphone Sanitizer and Universal Charger
UV light has been a key tool in deeply disinfecting surfaces since the pandemic began. Although they are widely utilized, these lamps should not be used to directly disinfect skin as the radiation can cause irritation, damage eyesight, however, they are effective for killing 99.99% of bacteria and germs.
The FDA reported that UV-C radiation can potentially inactivate the virus that causes Covid-19, but the effective duration of exposure and dose is still unknown.
If you’d like to wipe out germs while traveling, a UV smartphone sanitizer can disinfect things you come into contact with daily, like your smartphone, keys, headphones, credit cards, and any other items that can fit inside the 360-degree UV-C sanitizing compartment.
According to the description, the interior measures 3.74 inches long by 6.8 inches wide by .78 inches deep, so it fits most phones.
Also, for convenience it has two charging ports (one USB and one USB-C), so you can clean your screen and make sure your battery has enough juice at the same time.
