Maine Residents May Now Order Free COVID-19 Tests Every Month Through Project Act

COVID-19 Tests

The Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) announced yesterday that Maine people may now order free COVID-19 tests once a month through Project Access COVID Tests (Project ACT). Households in Maine may place one order per month through the Project ACT website and receive one free kit of five rapid tests mailed to their home address.  

To visit the Project ACT website and order your tests, please visit www.accesscovidtests.org or click here.

Any Maine resident can visit the Project ACT website to place their order.  The tests and shipping are both free to Maine residents, and the tests will be delivered through Amazon approximately one to two weeks after ordering. 

The tests require a quick swab inside each nostril, with results available within minutes. Any individual over the age of two can use the tests. As of July 8, 2022, the shelf-life of these rapid antigen tests has been extended from 6 to 12 months.
