LETTER: Why is process now so difficult?
A reader discusses covid testing.
Trying my best to act responsibly, I called at a chemist to obtain some lateral flow kits which I’ve done on a previous occasion with no problem at all.
Instead of being handed a rapid Covid-19 test kit, I was handed a leaflet explaining what hoops I had to jump through to obtain one.
These included; going online, scanning a QR code (whatever that means) or phoning 119. Why have the powers-that-be decided that now is the time to make getting these kits just that little bit more difficult?
