It's not, that news was reported from a UK media source (The Daily Mail), active cases are going down in Germany.

Simple fact is, people didn't take up the opportunity.

:(

Not one person mentioned stopping the virus dead because the fact is this is going to be a seasonal virus

You did.

Didn’t realise using your democratic right to question and criticise the government was ‘peddling hate’ these days, Boris got us all screwed up

they should have waited a few days then before releasing the figures then , because you cant send out a home test and have it back the same day :shrug:

I hope we get data on how many of these home tests get returned because I reckon many are ordering them just in case

Where did I

Exactly.

Exactly my point. Tests sent out are not an accurate indicator of how many have been done so far.

Yet the only hate being peddled in the thread is the desperate need to make this about "labour supporters". When you can't find a counter argument, I guess.

not what it says here

You cannot trust tabloid fodder why do people believe them.

The Sun?

Ah yes disprove a tabloid with... a tabloid

Not the Sun? Probably even worse

Yes tabloid fodder I was pointing out the way they ALL spin things to suit, The Mail,The Sun ALL trash.

I doubt you can believe any paper atm..all it can be is gossip over the phone and not face to face interviews.

You didn't get it at all did you ?I was not disproving anything , I was not saying the Sun was any better,they are ALL trash and to be taken with a pinch of salt.

Well they've got nowhere near that figure since they cooked the numbers on the last day of their self imposed deadline, so I think it's fairly to safe to say that it was yet another completely unnecessary lie that folks will defend them for.

I thought they'd reach their target by having Priti Patel read out the results.

It is interesting the target hasn't been met since 30th April, they say they have 108,000 are there just not enough looking for a test or are the tests not available, hard to say.

It’s not exactly clear how to get a home test, I thought I was showing symptoms so google “home testing corona kit” and all that came up was articles about it

You’d have thought the first result would be whichever gov site you get them from :conf2:

Go on here, and apply for one

https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus

they have home tests showing as available if you need one

How do you want to take the coronavirus test?

By requesting a home test kit AVAILABLE
You can ask for a kit for yourself and anyone else you live with who has coronavirus symptoms. There is an identity check for home test kits.

It's also interesting that the government said they did 122k tests but a few days later we still don't even have the capacity beyond 108k.

Is capacity at sites, I just don't know any more :laugh:

they have the capacity for 100k tests a day. That doesnt mean 100k will occur, i dont know why thats so hard to understand :laugh:
