GPs needing coronavirus tests face excessive delays, says former AMA president
Dr Kerryn Phelps says her colleague was told it would take five days to be tested for SARS-CoV-2
There are calls for GPs to be given fast-tracked access to COVID-19 testing amid concerns doctors will be forced into unnecessary self-isolation because of delays in finding out if they have been infected.
The issue is being flagged by former AMA president Dr Kerryn Phelps, who says a GP colleague was told they would have to wait five days before being tested.
