Free COVID-19 home test kits will be distributed to those who live within the municipal limits of the City of Bowie on January 28 and January 29, 2022. Distribution will begin at 9 a.m. at the Bowie Senior Center (14900 Health Center Drive). It will continue until all supplies for that day are distributed. Each household is eligible to receive one test box (containing 2 test kits) at this event and proof of residency will be required.
