Information from Covid Hub

As COVID-19 cases continue to be present in our communities we would like to provide you with information and encourage you to register your positive COVID-19 result to ensure you gain the support of the dedicated HUB team that covers the whole of the West Coast region.

There are two easy ways to register a positive RAT result:

Current isolation advice remains the same;

  • positive cases isolate for 7 days and
  • household contacts test using RATs for the first 5 days.
    • If you’re a household contact and you test negative you can continue your normal daily life, but please use a mask when you leave your home.
