ACCC raises 'significant concerns' about price hike in RAT kits

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) chief, Rod Sims, has said price gouging on COVID-19 rapid antigen tests is "beyond outrageous." The ACCC has received over 1800 reports from consumers since 25 December about high RAT pricing, as demand for the test kits continues to swell across the country.
