What can you now get through DoorDash besides food?

Answer: A COVID-19 test.

DoorDash wants to make it easier for people to get tested for COVID-19. That’s why, starting this week, users of the food delivery app in select cities will be able to order a test kit with same-day delivery.

Users will be able to choose between two different kits: the Everlywell nasal swab kit for $109, or the Vault Health saliva kit for $119, both of which can provide results in 24 hours. The option will be available in 12 cities initially: Baltimore, Chicago, Cleveland, Denver, Minneapolis, Phoenix and Dallas, with more locations intended in the future.

“COVID-19 testing will continue to play a critical role as businesses and schools begin to re-open across the U.S.,” DoorDash said in a press release. “Tests that can be taken at home and mailed to a lab offer even more convenience to customers as they eliminate the need to make a trip to a testing facility, or wait in long lines at the pharmacy or grocery store.”
