Testing positive using a COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test

The NSW Government is making changes to how it identifies positive COVID-19 cases. Most people who test positive on a rapid antigen test will not need to confirm their result with a PCR (nose and throat swab) test. Instead, people who test positive using a COVID-19 rapid antigen test must register with Service NSW as soon as possible. This will help you:

• quickly understand your relative level of risk

• access support from NSW Health.
