Clark Offering Free COVID At-Home Tests: How To Get Yours

CLARK, NJ - Clark Township residents can pick up free at-home COVID-19 testing kits, township officials said in a statement.

Starting Friday, March 17, 2023, the Clark Health Department will have the free kits on hand for residents on a first-come, first-served basis. The kits expire October 2023.

There are two tests per box. Kits will be located outside of Room 18 in the Municipal Building, township officials said.

Only one box is permitted per person.

Since the pandemic started, a total of 196,743 cases have been reported in the county. At least 1 in 223 county residents (2,499 total) have died of COVID-19, per the Times.
