With the lower rates of COVID-19, high vaccination rates, and demand for rapid antigen test (RAT) kits consistently decreasing, the province will be winding down its RAT programs, which includes no longer distributing kits to retail locations like pharmacies and grocery stores, starting June 30, 2023.
After June 30, 2023, those at highest risk of severe outcomes from COVID-19 including high-priority communities will continue to have access to free rapid tests through existing channels (e.g.,long-term care). RATs will also be available through other health system partners, for the upcoming respiratory season, and while provincial supplies last.
To support ongoing access to COVID-19 testing through the summer and the fall, in particular for people who may be eligible for COVID-19 treatment, Ottawa Public Health (OPH) will make rapid antigen test (RAT) kits available to Ottawa residents, free of charge, starting on July 4, 2023. Residents can access RAT kits through existing OPH services, like neighbourhood hubs and community vaccine clinics – local health partners and community agencies will be able to order provincial RAT kits through OPH, while provincial supplies last.
We provide access to social assistance programs including financial assistance, housing, employment services, and referrals.
