That was back in August. They have gone very quiet since then when it was made clear that:

b) the sites where samples are collected and the labs where the samples are tested were buckling under the pressure. Samples were being sent to Germany for testing. Earlier in the pandemic – May – there were also problems with the labs and samples had to be sent to the USA for testing. But then what can you expect when you put an Accountancy firm in charge and give them a nice fat contract to boot.
As in March we are once more in the position where Hancock and Co are talking about restricting testing.
