Holidaymakers told not to use NHS coronavirus tests to get the green light to travel and go private instead
NHScoronavirus tests to prove they don't have the disease before they go on holiday. As the health service struggles to meet testing demand, those planning on jetting off have been told not to expect a free test before they fly.Instead, those needing proof they are Covid-negative have been told to pay for a test with a private testing centre.The move, which will cost holidaymakers between £99-£200 per person, aims to free up the already over-burdened health service, urging only those who have symptoms should get tested.The government has suggested that those needing to take a test in order to be able to enter another country should do an internet search to find their nearest private centre.But they are also warned to check with the embassy.
