KDHE continues to provide testing for all Kansans with no out of pocket fees through March 20th. As part of the Kansas Unified Testing Strategy, WellHealth will continue to provide free saliva-based testing today and every day, except Sundays, holidays, and severe weather days from 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at 419 Holiday Drive in Manhattan. Appointments are recommended and can be made online at https://www.gogettested.com/kansas . In addition to WellHealth, if a person has a referral from their doctor’s office and makes an appointment, they can receive rapid testing at the Health Department.
