All Kansas households can get 5 more free COVID tests

Kansas households can now order more free COVID tests, according to a news release Thursday from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.

KDHE, in partnership with The Rockefeller Foundation’s public charity, RF Catalytic Capital and Project Access to Covid Tests, is providing a second round of free at-home COVID-19 tests to households in all Kansas communities. All households can now visit AccessCovidTests.org to place an order for an additional five at-home COVID-19 test kits. Amazon will deliver the test kits directly to your house.

Testing before holiday gatherings is one way to prevent spreading COVID-19 to family and friends, the release noted. Frequent testing is especially important for those with more exposure outside the home, such as kids in school or people who spend time in a group setting.

Kansans who need more support in ordering the tests can call 866-534-3463.
