Hospital staff waiting in line to be tested for Covid-19 have reportedly been told by Auckland District Health Board management to return to work.
A contact of a nurse who tested positive for the highly contagious virus says her hospital
colleagues- who have been waiting hours in line to get tested - were being told to return to work.
Messages sent among hospital staff, seen by the Herald, show management has requested some staff to return to work.
The hospital staffer, who the Herald agreed not to name, had been waiting in line at the Northcote testing centre for almost five hours and said she had been made to feel guilty for getting a test.
