Mecklenburg County’s health department is handing out free at-home rapid antigen tests for COVID-19 at certain Charlotte-area libraries. The program reboots after the county suspended the program in late December due to a shortage of at-home test kits.  Now having received additional supply, the health department will now distribute free tests to county residents at certain library locations – picking up curbside.

No identification, prescription or insurance is required and there is a maximum of four tests per household. Tests are available while supplies last. Free at-home tests are also available at the county health department’s southeast Charlotte location on Billingsley Rd.
