ST PAUL, Minn. — The Minnesota Department of Health has four additional free COVID-19 at-home rapid tests available to all residents through the state's online ordering program.
Health officials say this will be the final time free tests are offered before the program ends.
Since last April, state officials say more than 2.5 million free tests have been given out.
"Testing is essential in getting the proper treatment to those who need it and preventing the spread of COVID-19, and the state's free online ordering program made it simple for Minnesotans in every corner of the state to easily access critical testing," said Minnesota Commissioner of Health Dr. Brooke Cunningham in a news release.
The public can also place orders for the free tests through the Minnesota Department of Health COVID-19 Public Hotline at 1-833-431-2053 Monday, Wednesday and Friday: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Tuesday, Thursday: 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
