Wellington Covid-19 testing centres ready for surge of more tests

From Checkpoint, 5:21 pm on 28 June 2021

Covid-19 testing numbers have dropped from the heights recorded last week, but centres and GPs in Wellington are gearing up for another surge.

People who were at the same place as the Sydney traveller last weekend are required to get tested 12 days after exposure - Thursday and Friday.

The capital woke to a further 48 hours at alert level two today after the tourist was confirmed as infectious nearer the end of his stay.
