CHF has put together swab kits for PRA & DMS tests to try to keep testing affordable for all of our members. CHF is selling these at our cost after mailing. You will need swabs for all Wisdom Health Testing except for the Optimal Selection Panel. Here is the link: https://www.colliehealth.org/product/chf-swab-kits/
