There are more than 320 COVID-19 testing locations across NSW, many of which are open seven days a week.
Testing clinics in NSW will remain open on Christmas Day and all public holidays.
Clinic opening hours will be clearly listed on the NSW Government website. It is recommended that you check the website on the day you need to get tested to ensure you have the most up-to-date clinic information.
If there is no clinic open near you, attend your nearest public hospital. Most people in NSW are receiving their test results within 24 hours.
NSW Health urges anyone in NSW with even the mildest symptoms, such as headache, fatigue, cough, sore throat or runny nose, to come forward immediately for testing, then isolate until they receive a negative result.

COVID-19 clinics or contact your GP.
