Report your RAT test result whether positive or negative

Reporting a positive test not only helps health officials monitor the outbreak, it is also important if you or your whānau require additional healthcare services
Reporting a negative test helps health officials better understand how the outbreak is circulating through our households and communities
A weak positive is still a positive. Even if the test line is faint, you have COVID-19 and could be infectious.
