COVID-19 self-isolation rules have changed

From 14 October 2022 it is not mandatory to self-isolate if you test positive to COVID-19, but it is recommended you stay home and take steps to protect others. 

If you test positive on a rapid antigen test (RAT) please register this with Service NSW. Voluntarily registering your result can help you access medical support from NSW Health, including antiviral medicines if you are eligible.

Read more information on the self-isolation changes and how to stay safe.

These pages are currently being updated to reflect the changes.
