Covid-19 infection survey just been invited to participate21 Apr 2021 16:33
Just got home and have been invited to take part in a Covid-19 infection survey
‘This survey aims to find out how many people are still getting Covid-19, or are likely to have had it even if they haven’t realised it at the time. This is particularly important as more people start getting vaccinated against Covid-19. Although the vaccines work very well, they do not completely stop people getting the virus again and neither does having had Covid-19 in the past’
Interesting they seem to be using PCR test ‘it is the same swab test that is being used in the drive through test centres.’
Interesting they are also saying ‘in some people we will also measure levels of antibodies in their blood’ do we not have an LFT being developed/ready which could provide a similar result?
Do not know what test they are using yet, but will update when I do.
Either 5 visits in total (once a week for 5 weeks)
Or
Once a week for a month then 11 monthly visits in total for 1 year
Will sign up for the longer one
Anyone thinking the gov are not serious and testing will be done soon needs to think again!
