No lateral flows

[Newbabynewhouse]

On the news - "Cases are the highest so far...Before you go anywhere do a lateral flow to help slow the spread of the virus"

Although id happily do them...Can't get hold of them anywhere so no i cant do that unfortunately !

I ordered some online earlier. Try again tomorrow. When I got the ‘no delivery slots left’ last time, they were available again the next day. They usually only take a day to arrive.

Definitely difficult, we have 6 people in our household so would use a box each time.

It's all getting a touch chaotic again.

Online definitely. Have to wait a few days obvs! We have 15-20 different places within 5 miles that provide them - sports centre, library, GPs, pharmacies, health centre, school, etc etc etc. Not ONE of them has had one since 17th December. Poor form it really is!

I ordered some online this evening.

If you try the website every few hours normally you get lucky.
Also,many pharmacies have signs up saying they have no LFT’s but when you log in often give a list of these very places! I think it’s to put off walk ins.

I've been trying online for the past few days, but can't order any. I've been in close contact with 2 positive cases and and supposed to be doing LFTs every day...I haven't got enough left to get to the end of the required 7 day period.

Family of 5 so was ordering every day when DD caught covid 2 weeks ago. 1 box has come in that 2 weeks. None of the pharmacies or anywhere has any. Everyone on social media asking for some.

The ones I ordered online last night were delivered this morning.

They're in extremely short supply in the US as well.
