A queue of cars built up at the Covid-19 testing station at Rotorua's Kahukura Rugby Club this morning.
About 20 cars lined up in the club's car park on Pukuatua St as Auckland returned to alert level 3 and the rest of the country to alert level 2 after thediscovery of three new community Covid cases.
Rotorua's Jamie Adlam was at the station having a test as his girlfriend had returned from Auckland where she had visited one of the places of interest.
Adlam said he was feeling fine and had had a "couple of tests before".
Lakes District Health Board said the Covid-19 testing centres in Rotorua and Taupō would be open every day this week.
The centres, at Kahukura Rugby Sports Club on Pukuatua St in Rotorua and 79 Miro St in Taupō, are open Tuesday to Friday from 9am to 3pm.
