You can now order four at-home, rapid COVID-19 tests from the federal government to be shipped directly to your door.

Wednesday marks the launch of the Biden administration's initiative to get more tests into the hands of Americans as the highly contagious omicron variant surges across the country.

The website, COVIDTests.gov, features a link for Americans to order up to four at-home tests per residential address, to be delivered by the U.S. Postal Service.

These tests have been in short supply in recent weeks, with demand driven up by holiday travel and a rising wave of infections and possible contacts with the omicron variant.

A separate link, special.usps.com/testkits, went live Tuesday in a "beta testing phase" of the site ahead of Wednesday's launch, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki confirmed.
