From today, WA households can receive up to 15 free individual Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs), with 10 extra tests automatically being delivered to people who previously registered for the first 5 free tests for their household.
Millions more RATs will be given to Western Australians for free as part the next phase of the WA free RAT Program.
So, how can I get my additional 10 free RATs if I have already registered?
🚗 If you registered for collection and have not yet collected your RATs, you will now receive 15 RATs at the time of collection, from today at Kingsway Regional Sporting Complex carpark, in Madeley.
🚗 If you registered for collection and have already collected your first 5, your additional 10 will be delivered to your home address. You will not be able to collect this order. If you have since moved to a different address, please call 13COVID (13 26843).
📭 If you have registered for delivery and have received your delivery, your additional 10 RATs will be automatically sent out to the registered address.
📭 If you have registered for delivery and have not yet received your delivery, you will automatically be sent 15 RATs with your original order.
🚍 🏟 An additional 500,000 RATs will be on offer at pop-up distribution locations, such as selected train stations, major events, universities and metro and regional shopping centres.
Still need to register for your free RATs?
