NZ seizing RATs as Australia rolls them out

In Australia:

The Australia’s Department of Health is finalising substantial changes to give returning travellers the option of completing a rapid antigen test (RAT) within 24 hours before their flight, rather than having to take an expensive PCR test within three days as is currently required.

In New Zealand:

Covid testing kits are being stopped at the border as Kiwis try to import them for home use, and the seizures have been criticised as unfair and illogical.

Crazy. We should be selling them in supermarkets, not confiscating them.
