Regular coronavirus testing
13/05/2021
Please make continued and regular use of testing available locally. If you’ve classic Covid symptoms, or even what the NHS call ‘mild or extended’ symptoms (general weakness; sore throat; shortness of breath; diarrhoea; headache; chills; muscle pain runny nose; dry or productive cough), self-isolate and book a PCR test. Self-isolation is critical in stopping the spread, and financial and practical support is available.
If you’ve no symptoms you should still take part in regular testing twice a week: you can order lateral flow tests for delivery to your door; collect them from our community testing sites; or visit a site for a test. You’ll get results within 30-45 minutes.
If you’re coming in to work it’s even more important to do a lateral flow test. If you prefer not to order online, asymptomatic testing is available at the drop in centre at 30/32 High Street, Elgin or at our mobile testing sites.
