Asked when it would be available for everyone, he said: “Over the coming weeks and months ahead. We’re starting the roll out today.” The funding will be used to expand existing trials of saliva tests and a rapid 20-minute test in southern England. However in England, official health service advice is only for citizens to get a COVID-19 test if they have symptoms, although more regular testing is available for certain professions, such as care workers.
“Ideally we would be far more advanced in our ability to handle, what we’re already beginning to see, an increase in requirement for COVID testing.”
