COVID-19 Testing & Treatment:

- To find a testing site near you, visit ncdhhs.gov/GetTested. For an up-to-date list of no-cost community testing events, visit the No-Cost Testing Events webpage. Additionally, all North Carolinians can request a free at-home COVID-19 testing kit.
- COVID-19 treatments can lower your risk of hospitalization or death. If you have symptoms, don't wait:
- Talk to your doctor about treatment
- Or call 1-800-232-0233 (TTY 888-720-7489). The call center is available in 150 languages.
- Treatments are not a substitute for vaccination. Vaccines continue to offer the best protection against COVID-19.
