RATs (Rapid Antigen Tests) are a quick and convenient way to detect and limit the spread of COVID-19.
Free RATs for WA Households
WA households are eligible for another 20 free nasal RATs. Each household in WA can collect free Rapid Antigen Tests from:
- metropolitan drive-through collection points and COVID-19 vaccination clinics
- regional COVID-19 testing clinics.
Millions of free RATs have already been distributed by the WA Government, as part of the WA free RAT program. This latest distribution of RATs is another way the WA Government is providing the community with easy and convenient ways to test for COVID-19 while also easing cost of living pressures.
