Get your rapid antigen testing kit
Rapid antigen testing kits are free for EVERYONE. A pharmacy should never ask you to pay for a kit.
Visit your local pharmacy and ask for your testing kit. Anyone can ask for a kit. You don’t have to show ID.
If you can’t go to a pharmacy, a friend or family member can pick up a test kit for you.
