A new option on the 'BeAware Bahrain' app will allow users to upload photos of their COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test results to be submitted to Health Ministry, announced the Information and eGovernment Authority (iGA).

The service is in line with directives issued by His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, to maximise the use of technology to respond to COVID-19.

It complements efforts by the National Taskforce for Combatting the Coronavirus (COVID-19) to control and limit the spread of the virus.

The Rapid Antigen Test is currently available at pharmacies throughout Bahrain. The service provides a digital channel that allows individuals to communicate quickly with specialized authorities at the ministry and streamlines test procedures for the public, ensuring quicker testing and results.
