Toolkit: COVID-19 Testing

Testing helps us to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and should be used alongside our best tools to stop this pandemic—getting vaccinated, getting boosted, and wearing a high filtration mask in indoor public settings. Now, every U.S. household can order up to four free COVID-19 tests through a new federal program, and at-home tests are covered by insurance. 

Use our new toolkit to help answer questions in your community about the different kinds of COVID-19 tests that are available, when individuals should take a test, how to get free tests, and what to do after they get results. Visit our updated Answers to Tough Questions for additional messaging guidance on COVID-19 testing.
