So the government are still insisting that they will replace pcr tests for much cheaper lft's in time for half term holidays. Can anyone tell me which lft's are authorised, how much they cost & where they can be purchased from? Oh and do you need to video yourself taking the test or will a photo be sufficient? Half term is only 2 weeks away but nothing decided yet.
Nationwide Pathology selling Day 2 pcr test for £40.
Biograd selling in clinic for £19.
Lateral Flow Test by video call how much? Positive result requiring a further pcr test. (government funded)
I think the government are playing games. Putting pressure on the pcr test providers to drop the price. Which to be fair needed to happen as some prices were ridiculous.
Ask yourself this. If the costs were the same which would the government be pushing for the safety of the nations health.
Excellent letter by Tony Cooke by the way.
