Can anyone explain why they are using 3 tests per person?

See this is the thing with these tests from the beginning, just because you are clear one day, does not mean you will be the next, unless you self isolate. The tests give you a false sense of security, oh im all clear...well you was, but you just caught it off the next person that hadn't had a test.

Did you see the Bundasliga games ?

No fans, socially distanced goal celebrations, and the bench all sitting 2m apart wearing face masks.

It looked ****.

i watched a 2 minute highlight clip on BBC website

****in ****e...without the fans, they are mere mortals having a kick about like the rest of us.

No soul in the goal

In which case let's open it up to everyone, symptoms or not. Appreciate people without symptoms may not have it but how different is that from what you've highlighted? At least by testing everyone we get a much better idea of who and where and to what extent it is in the country. That's proper track and tracing.

We're only testing 60k but have capacity for 100k people a day so there's no reason we can't do it.

I've got to go to the hospital tomorrow, which should be interesting.

So far I've had nothing to tell me, but i know that tomorrow, they should be telling me to have a test done and once it's done, they should be telling me to self isolate for 2 weeks.

Let's see if they follow those guidelines :)

They probably should have kept Jeremy Kunt in office.

I can see some merit in what he says. OK Jeremy wants to throw scientists under the bus as well BUT he's calling the government out on publishing what SAGE are advising so at least he's trying to find out the truth.

So are you suggesting we force people to take the test?

Not sure why you're going in but I hope all is well mate.

How can you be sure that you will need to self-isolate if you don't mind me asking?
