The Team Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Rotorua MP Todd McClay has called on the Government to make Covid-19 tests available for everyone in the tourist town.

McClay made the call in the wake of news two members from a South Auckland family who tested positive for Covid-19 visited Rotorua last weekend.

The person visited a number a tourist facilities in Rotorua. The Ministry of Health is tracing these movements and working on locations visited by this person.

Covid-19 testing is currently available in Rotorua at the former Holmes Packaging site on Vaughan Road. It will operate as a drive-through facility and is open until 4pm on Wedneday for anyone with symptoms of Covid-19.
