“Now lateral flow tests are more widely available, having a test before going to hospital is the responsible thing to do.
“However we recognise that it is a personal choice and it is not easy or possible for everyone.
“Remember, one in three people with Coronavirus (COVID-19) do not have symptoms, but can still infect others and getting tested is the only way to know if you have the virus or not.”
