Let me get my brain around this please. Having jumped through all the hoops necessary to leave the UK (jabs, negative test etc.) , I can now buy, at my own expense, a test kit which could keep me locked down for the duration of my holiday ?
Lawrie, please do carry on despairing. The rest of us will carry on being respectful and considerate to our loved ones.
I usually don’t big up the U.K. but this is about the only thing the uk did right… they’ve had free tests for more than a year now… Spain are only just managing to release pod tests in pharmacy’s 🤦🏼
If for example you were going to visit elderly relatives. Why would you want to cheat on the results ?
Who on earth would buy these apart from the Covid terrified, brainwashed out there? I despair.
@Steve, Son Maties: Really? Does the definition 'self discipline' ring a bell?
@Steve, ‘They’ don’t have to know who has taken the test. These tests are voluntary and mainly for people who show no symptoms but want to know whether they are infected and could unknowingly infect others. As it states above you only have to contact ‘them’ if it shows positive and ‘they’ will then do a proper PCR test and enter the data into the system. Haven’t they been available in the UK for quite some time? Lateral flow tests I think you call them, if I’m not mistaken. I think the UK government supplies them for free by post. 🤔
Sounds nuts to me, how do they know who's taken the test.... easy to get whatever test result suits your needs....
