Concerns Coromandel peninsula GP's will be inundated with people seeking a Covid-19 test.

There are eight locations of interest in and around the western side.

Coromandel District Councillor John Morrissey told Kate Hawkesby there are no testing stations on the Coromandel.

"I'm hoping the Ministry of Health will step up and we might get some testing stations. As for GPS, we haven'tthat many of them in town for a start and we don't want to overrun them with just testing."
