Provide the British public with free COVID19 tests regardless of the symptoms
The Government should provide COVID19 tests for all patients that show any symptoms. This is to provide immediate clarity on the condition and to allow, non-COVID19 related conditions to be addressed in a timely manner.
Government should provide more tests facilities or at least facilitate private companies to provide a reliable service that is affordable.
