The tech giant Google is offering free weekly Covid-19 tests for 90,000 Google employees. Every US Google employee will be eligible to sign up for a free at-home test, as reported by The Wall Street Journal.
The initiative guarantees all of them a weekly, at-home nasal swab and a lab analysis—whether they are reporting for duty in-person, or not. The company is recommending that every staffer be tested weekly.
Employees at Google’s flagship search properties, as well as company arms including YouTube, Google X, fiber internet and artificial intelligence, all have access to the testing. International Google employees will be offered access starting next year.
