Why?

Testing is one of the most important ways to protect both your loved ones and neighborhood from COVID. Remember, even if you're confident that you can quickly recover from COVID, there are many people in Baltimore who are high risk for severe infection, hospitilization, or even death. That means that if you have symptoms, you should immediately test yourself so that, if you do have COVID, you can take the proper actions to prevent its spread. 

How?

You should be able to get a COVID test from your local pharmacy for about $20 for a box of two tests.

If you can't afford a COVID test from a pharmacy, the Baltimore City Health Department encourages you to access free COVID tests at your local library. For locations and availability, check here.
