RATs to be distributed at Kambah testing clinic today

Rapid antigen tests (RATs) will once again be distributed at the Kambah testing clinic today, Sunday 16 January.

The kits will be available between 10am and 4pm for people who fall into these categories:

  • Have COVID-19 symptoms
  • Are household contacts of a confirmed case
  • Are at a high moderate risk of contracting COVID-19
  • Have been instructed by ACT Health to get tested

ACT Health say only one kit will be issued per person and additional kits cannot be taken for people who are not present at the testing facility.

Currently, RATs are only scheduled to be handed out today as the ACT awaits further supply of testing kits.

RATs were distributed at the Kambah clinic on Friday 14 January with hundreds waiting in line before the 10am opening time.

ACT Health asks that people attending the clinic respect their staff after several reports of aggressive behaviour on Friday.
