Northwestern University to distribute free COVID-19 tests before spring break

0

Northwestern will distribute a limited number of free at-home COVID-19 tests to interested students, faculty and staff at sites on the Chicago and Evanston campuses next week.

Abbott Laboratories, the maker of the tests, recently extended the expiration dates on many of their at-home test kits. This extension allows Northwestern to provide at-home tests to the community. While the date printed on the packages may appear past expiration, the tests are not expired.
