Free COVID tests available for residents of certain Zip Codes

Residents of vulnerable communities are eligible for free COVID tests, according to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.

The KDHE stated that it has partnered with the Rockefeller Foundation’s public charity, RF Catalytic Capital and Project Access to COVID Tests to offer free at-home COVID-19 tests directly to Kansas residents of vulnerable communities.

Kansas residents may visit AccessCovidTests.org to check if their Zip Code is eligible.

Frequent testing is important for those with more exposure outside the home, such as kids in school or people who spend time in a group setting, according to the KDHE.

Kansas residents will be able to enter their Zip Code at the AccessCovidTests.org website to see if free, rapid, at-home COVID-19 test kits are available.
