COVID-19 rapid antigen test kits are available for pickup at participating pharmacies across B.C. while supplies last. These kits are free of charge through the publicly funded PharmaCare program. Each kit contains five take-home tests. No ID is required, and you may pick up a kit for someone else. Please store kits between 2°C and 30°C.
Please note:
PharmaCare’s distribution program is winding down, and once free kits are no longer in stock, pharmacies may offer private supply at cost.
