From a press release:
“Safeway pharmacies in Maryland, Virginia, D.C., and Delaware are now offering at-home COVID-19 test kits. The saliva tests, offered at Safeway, in partnership with Phosphorus Diagnostics, typically offer results in 72 hours or less from the time the lab receives the test.
Here’s how it works:
Visit scheduletest.com to complete a short medical questionnaire and request your test.
Your Safeway pharmacist will authenticate the information, review, and order your test.
You will be contacted for payment and receive notification that your test kit is ready for pick-up or has delivered/shipped to your address. Patients showing symptoms should not pick up their own test; they must send a representative or choose delivery.
Complete the sample collection and send it to the lab via the kit’s prepaid next-day shipping envelope.
Receive your results by email or text.
After the patient learns the results, a Safeway pharmacist will be available for questions regarding follow-up care.
Currently, the pharmacy cannot bill insurance directly for the test; all payment is out of pocket. Patients may be able to submit their receipt to insurance for reimbursement.
Customers can contact any local Safeway pharmacy for additional information.
The test has received Emergency Use Authorization by the FDA for the detection of COVID-19. Albertsons Companies expects to have rolled out the offering to all the market areas it serves in October.”

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!
Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.
Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
