紐西蘭更新抗原快篩指引
Rapid Antigen Testing(RAT) update
From Monday morning, rapid antigen tests will be made available at all
Community Testing Centres in Auckland, to those who fit the appropriate
clinical criteria. The site will determine which test (PCR or a rapid antigen
test) is best for you.
周一(2/21?)早上開始，奧克蘭所有社區篩檢站開放抗原快篩給符合臨床指引的對象
到了篩檢站後會告知要怎麼篩檢(PCR/抗原快篩)
Access to rapid antigen tests will be expanded further during the coming week.
快篩量能本周會持續擴充
As the outbreak grows more people will have COVID and there will be more
close contacts we need to test. As planned we will now increase the use of
RATs in phase 2 and phase 3 of our response in order to relieve pressure on
the PCR testing and reserve it for those most likely to have COVID.
因應本波爆發會有許多接觸者要篩，要把PCR量能轉給更有可能中的病患
As we’ve previously said, only those with symptoms or who have been
identified as close contacts of a case, or directed by a health professional
to get tested should be turning up at Community Testing Centres.
有症狀、確診個案接觸者、經醫療專業判斷要篩的再過來篩檢中心
(抗原快篩和PCR差異這部分段落略)
Testing continues to be one of our best defences against COVID-19.
Understandably as case numbers grow, so too does demand on COVID-19 testing
sites.
That’s why it’s important to reiterate once again that people do not need
to get tested, unless they are unwell with cold or flu symptoms, have been
identified as a close contact of a case or have been instructed to do so by
health officials.
As this demand has grown, some COVID-19 test results for Auckland and Waikato
are currently taking longer to process at laboratories. The use of rapid
antigen testing, alongside PCR testing, will improve this process at a time
of exceptional demand in Phase 2, provided the Community Testing Centre
queues are freely available for those who really need a test.
奧克蘭和懷卡多部分地區會因為大量篩檢需求導致檢驗流程跑的久的狀況
