FREE RAPID COVID-19 AT HOME TEST KITS

Alexandria Library is partnering with the Alexandria Health Department and the Virginia Department of Health to distribute free rapid COVID-19 antigen at-home test kits. Tests are for personal, individual use. If you are experiencing symptoms, please ask someone else to pick up your test kit for you.

Shelf-Life Information

On April 26, 2022, the US Food and Drug Administration extended the shelf-life of the FlowFlex COVID-19 Antigen Home Tests. You can learn more about the shelf-life of these tests on the FlowFlex website.

 

HOW DO I GET A TEST KIT?

  • Limit of FOUR TESTS per person (Note that each box contains TWO tests)
  • Call your local Library branch to check availability before visiting
  • Due to high demand, the COVID-19 test kits are available on a first-come, first-served basis
  • We are not able to hold kits at this time

 

WHAT IF I NEED HELP?

Library staff cannot assist with administering the test.

Call the Virginia Department of Health at 1-877-829-4682 or visit VDH online.
