Advanced kiosks company The Venders reported on Wednesday that it has entered into a partnership with myLAB Box, a national leader in at-home test kits for infectious diseases, to make COVID-19 & STD testing available through vending machines at colleges and universities.

Based on student survey results, the partnership is filling the vending machines with an STD test and a COVID-19 test that will provide lab-certified results within 24 hours.

The partnership plans to improve the health and wellness of college students across the country at no cost to the educational institution. The testing kits will be kept to the same low pricing as large online and retail outlets, not the usual overpricing that people see in vending machines.

In addition, the testing is anonymous and all tests include a consultation with a licensed physician. The price for the kit is inclusive of the testing, shipping, telehealth consult, online electronic results and prescriptions. Testing can be reimbursable using a flexible spending or health savings account, concluded the partners.
