Is there a way to do a DNA test anonymously?

Article: 'See it as your civic duty': Testing blitz to target hotspots as Victoria records 33 new cases
I found this part especially interesting:
Health workers going door-to-door to test residents in these hotspots will be using a new type of saliva test developed by the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity that is less invasive, and painful, than nose and throat swabs.
