Wonder how you do a rapid anitgen test for COVID-19? Unsure what's involved? Here's our step-by-step guide!
You do not need to have your rapid antigen test confirmed with a PCR test unless you are:
- pregnant (more than 20 weeks gestation)
- Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander
- unvaccinated (16 years and over)
- immunosuppressed
- a worker, resident, patient, or client in a high-risk setting where there is not a current confirmed outbreak. High risk settings include: healthcare, aged care, disability care, and correctional facilities
asked to by a registered medical practitioner.
From 12 January, you must report a positive rapid antigen test result:
- within 24 hours of getting the result.
- every time you get a positive result.
If you have tested positive and reported your result, you can:
- quickly understand your relative level of risk based on your personal circumstances
- access support services available from NSW Health
- access financial support, such as the Pandemic Disaster Leave Payment.
