Travelers passing through Oakland International Airport during the pandemic can now pick up a COVID-19 test like they would a bag of chips or a pair of headphones.
For about $150, travelers can buy DIY saliva-sampling tests from vending machine kiosks in each terminal.
“We realized that travelers are going through a tough time right now, especially as we all navigate this COVID pandemic,” said Roberto Bernardo, the Oakland airport’s spokesman. “We wanted to give travelers another option for testing.”
Oakland International is the first in the U.S. to sell COVID-19 tests in vending machines, airport officials said.
