Getting Tested for COVID-19

If you are concerned that you may have COVID-19 because you have symptoms, we recommend that you test right away. If you are concerned that you have COVID-19 because you know you had an exposure to someone who tested positive for COVID-19, we recommend that you get tested 3-5 days after exposure, regardless of vaccination status. If testing with an at-home test and you receive a negative result on your first test, take a second test within 24-48 hours.

Where to Test

Several testing options and locations are available in Spokane County, including local clinics and pharmacies offering testing, low- and no-cost options, and over-the-counter at-home testing kits. If you have a primary care provider, contact them to inquire about testing.

Free COVID-19 and Flu Tests

You can also get free COVID-19 and influenza (flu) tests from the TestandGo Kiosk provided by Spokane Regional Health District and the Washington State Department of Health. The kiosk is restocked monthly, so if supplies are not available, please check back later. The TestandGo Kiosk will be available to community members through Dec. 31, 2024.
