“This is not just people putting in their data from yesterday, it’s people having rapid antigen tests on the 2nd, 3rd, 4th of January and we’re putting all that data together.” Mr Dominello said the primary goal of the new reporting system was to connect positive people with advice and medical assistance if required.

“Over 99 per cent of people who get COVID will have mild symptoms and can be treated at home, but there will be that one per cent or less who will require additional healthcare.NSW has made it mandatory for people who test positive on a RAT to notify the government.The government has made it mandatory for anyone who tests positive on a rapid test to report it via the new system or risk a $1,000 fine.“I accept it’s going to be almost impossible to police,” he admitted.

The 82,000 figure only includes rapid test results and not PCR swabs, with those numbers to be revealed by NSW Health later at 9am.
