Test results are available in two to four days. These tests are given Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at 8930 Stanford Blvd. in Columbia. These kits are free and appointments are recommended although walk-ups are welcome. To schedule an appointment, visit https://howardcounty.azova.com/. BinaxNow At-Home Rapid Test Kits are available for pick-up during the testing dates while supplies last. Individuals are limited to two test kits per person.
