Rapid COVID-19 Tests
Free tests kits are available for pick up at WCHD front lobbies located at 1302 Pennsylvania Ave. & 925 N. Burhans Blvd.
At-home tests are intended for people who may have been exposed to COVID-19, who are having symptoms of COVID-19, or who want to take extra steps to protect vulnerable family and friends they are visiting. They are not for routine employment testing, pre-travel testing, or school quarantine/isolation. Check with your work, school, or travel destination for more information about tests acceptable for these uses.
Please read all testing instructions and be aware of the limitations of testing. No test is 100% accurate and false negatives and false positives may occur. For general information on self-testing, visit the CDC’s self-testing page.
If Your Test Result is POSITIVE:
Report Positive At-Home Rapid Test Results at covidlink.maryland.gov/selfreport
To avoid spreading the virus to others, follow CDC recommendations. See CDC’s guidance Quarantine and Isolation, which has information for a person who tests positive and has symptoms, and for a person who doesn’t have symptoms. If your illness becomes severe, seek medical attention.
Tell your close contacts that they may have been exposed to the virus that causes COVID-19. A person with COVID-19 can begin spreading it starting 48 hours (or 2 days) before the person has any symptoms or tests positive. By informing your close contacts they may have been exposed, you are helping to protect everyone.
If Your Test Result Is Negative:
A negative test result means the virus that causes COVID-19 was not found in your specimen. If you took the test while you had symptoms and followed all instructions carefully, a negative result means your current illness is probably not COVID-19.
However, it is possible for a test to give a negative result in some people who have COVID-19. This is called a false negative. You could also test negative if the specimen was collected too early in your infection. In this case, you could test positive later during your illness.
Some self-tests, such as the BinaxNOW test, are designed to be used in a series. By testing more than once, you might detect COVID-19 more quickly and could reduce the spread of infection.
If your self-test is negative, test again in 24-48 hours. Contact a healthcare provider if you have any questions about your test results or serial testing. You may also use the COVID-19 Viral Testing Tool to help you determine the next steps after testing. If you have COVID-19 symptoms, especially if you have been exposed to someone who has COVID-19, you should isolate according to CDC recommendations.
If you think your negative test result may be incorrect, contact a healthcare provider to determine whether or not additional testing is necessary.
