All well and good to ease lockdown and protect the vulnerable BUT untll the UK gets the testing to the higher levels? Nothing.

1) I am a key worker but because I have no symptoms, I cannot get a test to see if I am an asymptomatic carrier.
2) My partner is a key worker in the NHS but, likewise.
3) My partners daughter (aged 30) is a key worker and had the virus badly but just scraped through not having to go to hospital - so she was not tested. Doctors allowed her to return to work. Her mother nursed her at home (we do not live together) and isolated from work but also allowed to return to work.

So that's three of us with no tests and all at work. Not clever.
