Broward County began distributing COVID-19 at-home rapid test kits, while supplies last on Thursday.
The test kits will be distributed from the drive-through, curbside service lanes outside nine county libraries.
“This is what it is right now. We have to do what we have to do to make sure we are safe," said Kelly Singa, who went to get a test in Miramar.
