Winter Respiratory Illness: RATs and Antiviral Supply for NSW ACCHOs

The AH&MRC are still able to provide Covid/Flu Rapid Antigen Tests to member services. If your service is interested, please complete this Request Form

We understand that there has been some delay with dispatching from our supplier and we do apologise. However, we’ve been advised that any outstanding orders will be dispatched this week. 

We hope these RATs have been useful in the management of your patients with respiratory symptoms by providing early identification of COVID-19 and FLU.

NSW Health have advised us of the significant increase in orders for Oseltamivir (Tamiflu) through the State Vaccine Centre for our ACCHOs which protects patients with the flu from suffering more severe disease.  

We know this winter has been tough, with a significant burden of respiratory illnesses and acknowledge the ongoing work by services to respond to these challenges to support the health of the community  

Hopefully the warmer months aren’t too far away. In the meantime, keep up the good work and if you need any advice or support don’t hesitate to contact us at publichealth@ahmrc.org,au
