Free At-⁠Home COVID-⁠19 Tests

Posted in News, Notices

Announced last December as part of a larger Biden administration initiative to combat surging Omicron cases, over 500 million test kits — later upped to 1 billion — have been made available to all Americans. The Biden administration on Tuesday launched a new website, COVIDtests.gov, where people can order COVID-19 tests for free. The website will take you to the U.S. Postal Service website, where you enter your name and address for shipping. No billing information is required because the tests are free.

To learn more or place an order, visit the COVIDtests.gov webpage.

Residential households in the U.S. can order one set of 4 free at-home tests. Here’s what you need to know about your order:

  • Limit of one order per residential address
  • One order includes 4 individual rapid antigen COVID-19 tests
  • Orders will ship free starting in late January
