Information from Nova Scotia Health
—-
Schools – Students and staff of public, private and First Nations schools will be provided an additional supply of rapid tests for the month of February as part of the Test to Protect program.
Public Libraries and Family Resource Centres – Various locations across the province have a limited supply of rapid tests to distribute to the community. Locations have been identified where access to testing is limited. The individual distribution plans for those locations will vary. Please find your local library or resource centre online to see if they are one of the distribution sites and the schedule for pick-up. *If you have symptoms, please arrange for someone else to pick-up on your behalf so you are not potentially exposing staff to the virus.
Rapid Testing Pop-Up Sites – Pop-ups are where people can either take a rapid test on site or pick up tests to take home (limited supply). Our testing partners travel throughout the province to offer rapid testing.
