Hours-long lines at Otara testing centre despite extra staff
Hundreds of Aucklanders have turned out to Covid-19 testing centres across the city - with more demand than anticipated at one in Ōtara town centre. That station is a short drive from two new locations of interest - Kmart in Botany and Dark Vapes in East Tamaki - and they even increased their staffing levels ahead of it opening this morning. RNZ's reporter Katie Todd has been in Ōtara and spoke to Māni Dunlop.
