TAMWORTH SEES ENCOURAGING SPIKE IN COVID TESTS OVER CHRISTMAS

Hunter New England Health is encouraging more people to get tested for coronavirus in Tamworth.

The city saw an impressive number of swabs taken in the leadup to Christmas, with hundreds of residents and visitors queueing up.

But, as the clusters in Sydney worsen, health professionals are urging anyone with mild symptoms to stop in.

The pop-up clinic operates on weekdays in the Plain Street carpark.

Tamworth has not had a case of coronavirus in nine months.
