I have been working in a supermarket from the start. In my area i cant get a test unless im showing symptoms. I have not been tested once this whole time even with positive cases among other staff.

The magic money tree keeps on giving to maintain the idiocy of testing the healthy. How much will this cost? How much plastic waste is there going to be? How effective are they?

No thanks - don’t want dodgy tests that give false positives from which data can be manipulated to justify prolonging the lockdown

'Free' = tax payer funded.
