New 90-minute coronavirus tests could be used in schools as No10 confirmed pupils will return in September - despite fears of a second wave.
Two new "on the spot" tests that can detect coronavirus and flu will be rolled out in hospital, care homes and laboratories, with hopes the technology will help the NHS cope in the winter months.
Matt Hancock hailed the development as a "big step forward" and suggested the tests could be used in schools to prevent outbreaks.
And No10 said Boris Johnson had made an "absolute commitment" to getting schools to reopen full time in September after months away from the classroom for many pupils.
