Friday Deadline for Free COVID Tests from Federal Government

Friday Deadline for Free COVID Tests from Federal Government

From North Central Public Health District:

By Shellie Campbell

The Dalles, Ore. March 6, 2024 — Possibly the last chance to get free COVID-19 tests mailed to your home from the U.S. government is coming to an end later this week. This Friday, March 8, is the last day to order the free tests. The program is being suspended after Friday.

To order tests, visit https://special.usps.com/testkits. The free shipment is limited to one order per household and includes four tests. Please note that tests you receive may show “expired” on the box, but the FDA has extended those dates. Please see the full list of extended expiration dates.

North Central Public Health District encourages the public to take advantage of this offer since we are no longer receiving free COVID tests to distribute to the public.

For information about where to get COVID testing, please visit https://www.ncphd.org/covid-testing.

(For more information, please contact North Central Public Health District at 541-506-2600, visit us on the web at www.ncphd.org, or find us on Facebook.)
