Australians from across all territories and states (excluding South Australia and Western Australia) will be able to purchase rapid antigen Covid tests from stores beginning November 1.
The tests provide users a Covid result within 15 minutes and can be used anywhere without the need of a healthcare worker’s assistance.
Stores such as supermarkets giants Coles and Woolworths will offer the tests via stock or online, while convenience and petrol stores will have their supplies rolled out throughout November.
