These ‘unpleasant times’ we are living through have many aspects.
One of them was that, when the Govt set up the private Lighthouse labs (with it’s business friends) to do PCR tests, it banned the Public Health labs from doing the same.
Later, it appears that false positive PCR test results were having such an impact on staffing levels, requiring healthy staff to stay away from work, that the NHS started doing its own testing.
But, still, the Govt is promoting private businesses ahead of public.

These comments stood out to me.

“...she later learned that the UK government advises that only private providers can be used for PCR tests for travel.“

He added: "If you haven't paid for a test then assume it's not valid."

Follow the money.
