Free Covid tests now available: When to test and what results mean

Free at-home Covid tests can be ordered starting Monday. Here’s what you should know about when to test and what the results mean as new variants circulate.

At-home Covid tests can be ordered for free starting Monday.

Households can now order four free tests for home delivery at COVIDTests.gov. According to the government website, orders will begin shipping the week of Oct. 2.

When the new tests arrive, however, people are advised to check the expiration dates on the boxes. Some tests may show expired dates, but the Food and Drug Administration has extended those dates, according to the Department of Health and Human Services. The mailed tests will include instructions on how to look up the extended expiration dates. 

With Covid on the rise again, you may find that you or a family member needs an at-home test for the first time in months. 

Here’s a refresher on how and when to test for Covid, and what your at-home results really mean.
