Free COVID tests offered at Carter Park until 7 p.m. today

Wood County Health Commissioner Ben Robison hands out paperwork for people wanting COVID-19 tests last month.

COVID-19 tests are being offered until 7 tonight at Carter Park on Campbell Hill Road in Bowling Green.

Anyone can get a no-cost test at this event, which is a partnership between Wood County Health Department, the City of Bowling Green, the Ohio National Guard and the Ohio Department of Health.

No appointment is needed. A health care provider’s referral is not needed. 

Test results are typically available within two to three days, but may take longer. 

Anyone who tests positive will be contacted by their local health department and should stay home and away from others for at least 10 days. Public health officials will check in on your health, help you identify resources needed to safely isolate, ask where you have spent time with others and discuss who you have interacted with.
