After a busy start, demand remains steady but has slowed at the two pop-up community testing centres (CTCs) on Auckland’s North Shore.
Wait times at the pop-ups reduced steadily through the morning. At 3pm the wait time in Orewa was under 15 minutes, and at Albany it was around 30 minutes.
Volunteers drawn from the DHB workforce including public health nurse and social workers have been moving through the queues, handing out bottles of water and food, checking on people’s welfare and keeping them up-to-date on current wait times.
