Where to get free COVID-19 rapid antigen tests in Ontario

Dec 15 2021, 10:39 pm

The government of Ontario will be handing out COVID-19 rapid antigen tests for free of charge at pop-up sites across the province.

Through the month of December to mid-January, up to two million rapid tests will be given at pop-up sites in busy locations as part of the government’s enhanced testing strategy.

They will be given out for free at malls, retail settings, holiday markets, public libraries, transit hubs and the LCBO.

Those without symptoms or who have not had recent exposure to someone with COVID-19 will be able to pick up a package for free while supplies last. They can also get a free test done on-site.
