RE: Can COVID tests detect the rapidly spreading Delta variant?5 Jul 2021 12:15
Well the NHS LFT certainly doesn’t, student son and a fair number of friends celebrated a 21st, outside and inside and probably not within guidelines (but having watched the football supporters , think there was less hugging going on at their party so not feeling too guilty) , anyway one of the party tested positive (PCR) and 10 of them took the NHS Innova LFT and all were negative, few started to feel unwell so went for a PCR , 8 out of the 10 tested positive. Interesting though is that the parents of one who had gone home for 3 days after the party have tested negative with PCR , both double jabbed. So come on UK Gov , get a LFT test out that we can have confidence in. C’mon AVCT ,it’s been a long hold and sure it will be worth it !!
