"Testing the test is a small matter, and I anticipate that it will be done by the end of this week. In the near future people will be able to order a test that they can test themselves, or go to Boots, or somewhere similar to have their finger prick test done.“Several million tests have been purchased for use. These are brand new products. We have to be clear they work as they are claimed to do.

“Once they have been tested this week and the bulk of tests arrive, they will be distributed into the community.” As it stands, 90,436 people in the UK had been tested for Coronavirus and the Government aim to test 25,000 people within four weeks. However, speaking to GLAMOUR, a Boots UK Spokesperson said: “We are keen to work with the Government to explore opportunities to support COVID-19 testing and to support the NHS in any way we can. However we do not have any type of COVID-19 tests in our stores. Customers should not make a trip to a Boots store or pharmacy for this purpose.
