Free At-home COVID-19 Tests Program to Be Suspended

The federal government is suspending its free at-home COVID-19 test program this week, according to a website set up by the government, following a decrease in COVID-19-related hospitalizations.

The COVIDTests.gov website recently posted a banner alert, stating that it will suspend taking orders for free COVID-19 tests after March 8, 2024.

Orders for free tests placed on or before March 8 will still be delivered, it stated. The program was relaunched in September last year after being temporarily shut down in May.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said that it will still distribute free COVID tests to long-term care facilities, food banks, health centers, and schools, Axios reported.
