Residents and visitors to Southern Nevada can get free COVID-19 test kits at a pair of vending machines funded by the CDC's national initiative to address health disparities among rural communities and high-risk populations, according to a KSNV report.

The machines are located at the Bonneville Transit Center, a bus stop, in Las Vegas and the Mesa View Regional Hospital in Mesquite.

The user scans a QR code on the machine with their phone or types in a web link for the Southern Nevada Health District to get a pin number to punch into the machine. Users can access the machine five times a month.
