Rapid Testing for Households of School Age Children7 March 2021 (by admin) |
As part of the ongoing work to make children’s return to school as safe as possible, families of school age children are being invited to test themselves twice a week. About a third of people with coronavirus show no symptoms and potentially spread it without knowing.
Families are being offered tests to help find more cases of Covid-19 and to try and break any chains of transmission. Rapid testing detects cases quickly meaning anyone who test positive for Covid can isolate immediately.
