Find a testing site that offers free face masks | Healthpoint
Currently seems to be patchy amounts of P2/N95 masks available.
I got a box of 50 surgical masks.
You can get free medical face masks when you pick up rapid antigen tests (RATs) from a testing centre. You do not need to be unwell or have COVID-19 symptoms. You still need to order through the Request free COVID-19 RAT kits website.
If you are at higher risk of severe illness, you can get free P2/N95 face masks.
Both medical masks and P2/N95 particulate respirator masks are available, with P2/N95 masks are prioritised for people at highest risk from getting very sick from COVID-19.
Check on Healthpoint for the site's mask availability

This site offers free face masks when people are collecting RATs (subject to availability).You are able to receive a box of masks when picking up some RAT tests for yourself and your whānau.
You will more than likely receive medical masks, however some people may receive N95s as they may be at higher risk of developing severe COVID-19
Please be aware that not all of the community sites have the capacity to provide masks, please check the site you are wishing to attend in location hours below.
Yes. I was surprised when I was handed a box of maske when collecting RATs last week.
