As part of the latest COVID-19 testing blitz, health authorities are calling for a 50% rise in COVID-19 tests as the only reliable way to find out if the recent Victorian outbreak has spread to South Australia.
Any South Australian who has any symptoms no matter how mild, or have been in contact with someone with symptoms, should get tested too.
On this episode of ‘Our State’, SA Pathology Clinical Service Director Dr Tom Dodd talks about the importance of testing - even if you don't have any symptoms - and what we can do as a community to prevent a similar outbreak here in South Australia.
