FDA has revised its [online guide](https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/coronavirus-covid-19-and-medical-devices/understanding-home-otc-covid-19-antigen-diagnostic-test-results?utm%5Fmedium=email&utm%5Fsource=govdelivery#:~:text=A%20positive%20result%20using%20an,home%20and%20away%20from%20people) on when and how often people should use an over-the-counter at-home Covid-19 test to encourage users to self-report their test results at [MakeMyTestCount.org](https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDIsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsImJ1bGxldGluX2lkIjoiMjAyMzAyMDYuNzEwODAwMzEiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL21ha2VteXRlc3Rjb3VudC5vcmcvP3V0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX3NvdXJjZT1nb3ZkZWxpdmVyeSJ9.KdCPL8tuqC1gfWUbCOstUCEtIsB5Oj0F3yGwqgyJi%5Fk/s/1255931999/br/154056413257-l?ref=fdaweb.com). The agency says that each test result should be reported only one time, and it is intended to help public health departments know how fast the virus is spreading. The MakeMyTestCount Web site is developed through NIH’s Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics Tech program, and the reporting can remain anonymous.
