Eisenhower Army Medical Center issued the following announcement on Mar. 9. 

Eisenhower Army Medical Center will distribute free at-home COVID-19 rapid antigen tests to eligible TRICARE beneficiaries, March 11 from 8:30 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4 p.m. at the Vaccination Clinic, Bldg. NRP 322 (E. Hospital Road) on Ft. Gordon.

• At-home COVID-19 tests are tests that you can take at home and get your results without sending a sample to a laboratory for testing. These tests are easy to use, produce rapid results, and can be bought over-the-counter if necessary.

• You can take a test at home, even if you don’t have symptoms or are fully vaccinated, in order to make decisions that will help prevent spreading COVID-19 to others. 

• Although at-home COVID-19 tests are available, you’re encouraged to request a laboratory test like PCR instead of an at-home test when possible.

• You should take an at-home test if:

o You begin to have symptoms of COVID-19

o You come into close contact with someone who has COVID-19

o You’re gathering indoors with a group of people who are at risk of severe disease or not vaccinated.
