Covid tests and test sites
The Covid-19 vaccine remains the most effective protection against the infection
and severe illness. Boosters, if you are eligible, are highly recommended.
If you have been exposed or you have symptoms, help reduce the spread by testing at home and getting results in minutes. People who don’t have symptoms can still spread COVID-19, so testing is critical to knowing if you are infected.
Who should test?
Anyone age 2 and older can take a Covid-19 test. Testing is especially important if you are out in the community and you may have been exposed - whether you are vaccinated or not!
Free Covid Tests!
The White House is rolling out an online order form for free at-home COVID tests—families will be able to order up to 4 tests per household.
To order, visit: https://special.usps.com/testkits
The program has been expanded to allow U.S. households to order a total of two test kits with four tests each, or a total of eight tests.
You may be able to order additional test kits from Washington state at:

COVID-19 Vaccine Dosage Is Based on Age on the Day of Vaccination, Not on Size or Weight

that is the right amount for their age group.
