Christchurch International Airport is not doing daily Covid-19 saliva tests for its border staff – unlike Auckland Airport, which is privately funding a saliva testing pilot. Airport boss Malcolm Johns said it was not a financial issue, but it was unnecessary as almost all international travellers were arriving via Auckland. The bigger risk in Christchurch was at managed isolation and quarantine (MIQ) facilities. The Government is slowly rolling out saliva testing for staff working in MIQ facilities, in addition to mandatory PCR nasal testing every seven to 14 days for all border workers.
