Premier Daniel Andrews<\/p>\n

The state government has some extra news parents might have missed in regards to Rapid Antigen Tests.<\/p>\n

At the start of the year, the government promised that Victorian kids would go back to school, stay at school, and be safe at school too.<\/p>\n

Premier Andrews said “And that’s exactly what happened”.<\/p>\n

Last week the Premier announced that they were expanding and extending those measures for the rest of the term.<\/p>\n

“It means 24 million extra RAT tests for schools and early childhood services, which we expect will help prevent 61,000 new infections,” Premier Andrews said.<\/p>\n

“And an extra 60,000 ventilators, on top of the 50,000 already in schools \u2013 enough to cover every single government classroom in the state.”<\/p>\n

Construction has also begun on over 800 shaded outdoor learning spaces for schools in every corner of the state.<\/p>\n

Kids aged 5-11 can now get their first and second dose, and those aged over 16 can go get a third dose right now.<\/p>\n

“So please, don’t delay – walk in, or book in, and get your children vaccinated today,” Premier Andrews said. <\/p>\n
