10 May 2026 - Removed Oxford Biodyn (OBD) from a Watchlist

Article from Reuters printed in the Guardian

"Britons will have to start paying for lateral flow tests at the end of June – Reuters
Rapid Covid tests in Britain will no longer be free for people in the UK from the end of June, according to plans reportedly drawn up by health officials.

A document seen by Reuters news agency shows the ending of free testing has been pushed back from earlier in the year due to the emergence of the Omicron variant.

One source said the target could move again if the virus throws up another “curveball” such as a worrying new variant.

The Department of Health has declined to say what the tests cost, citing commercial contracts. One source has said they could charge £30 for a pack of seven.

The document says officials are now working on the premise that an online ordering system should be ready at the end of June to direct most people, excluding key workers and some others, to providers of paid-for LFTs in what is described as a “ramp down of the Universal Testing Offer”.

“We will continue to provide free tests as long as necessary. It is one of the most important lines of defence, alongside our vaccines programme,” a government spokesman said when asked about the new date.

Education secretary Nadhim Zahawi recently called for the UK to show the rest of the world how to move from pandemic to endemic Covid, as he suggested it would be helpful to cut the isolation period to five days to ease workforce shortages.

With the move from pandemic to endemic Covid, the Sunday Times reported free LFTs could be limited to high-risk settings such as care homes, hospitals and schools, and to people with symptoms. This was set out as an eventual aim by the government’s winter Covid plan, which said at some stage the government’s provision of free lateral flows would end and “individuals and businesses would bear the cost”.

Zahawi told Sky News this was “absolutely not where we are at”, with 425m lateral flows available for January to help identify cases in the Omicron wave.

Pressed on whether the government had plans to scrap the free tests, he said: “Absolutely not. Absolutely not. Absolutely not.”
