Monday 23 May 2022 11:49 PM Covid Australia: Rapid antigen tests may be hiding true number of infections trends now
Fears Covid data may be USELESS in Australia as nation hits highest per capita rate of infections in the world Australia now has the highest per capita Covid infection rates globally Scientists fear there may be even more people infected who aren't reporting it Many people aren't taking PCR tests and instead do the much easier rapid kits The responsibility is then on the individual to report their infection to authorities

Australia has the highest per capita rate of Covid-19 infections of any comparable country in the world, but pathologists fear they haven't got the full picture.
In most cases, people are using rapid antigen tests in the home which firmly places the responsibility to report on the individual rather than a health professional.
