The supply of these tests will allow all patient-facing staff to be able to test, twice-weekly, using self-administered nasal swabbing and report their results through an online platform. Any positive lateral flow antigen tests will need to be followed up by a confirmatory PCR test.
The aim is to improve virus detection in primary care thereby helping to protect staff, reduce transmission and improve the resilience of services.
