Thousands of people are now undertaking Lateral Flow Tests (LFTs) twice a week at home. For these tests to be most effective it is important to know when an LFT is the right option and when we should book a PCR test.
Lateral Flow Tests should only be used when a person is not displaying COVID-19 symptoms. In no circumstance should they be used as a substitute for a PCR test. This is because they are not designed to pick up COVID-19 when there are symptoms.
Flintshire’s Test, Trace and Protect team has noted a growing number of Coronavirus cases in the Flint area.
Several positive cases have been confirmed and a number of identified contacts are also self-isolating.

Many of us associate mapping with planning or the environment, but advances in digital technology now means every address in the UK can be pin pointed by a unique property reference number (UPRN), similar to a National Insurance number which is unique to one person.
