Has your child been selected for testing?

[Mummypig2020]

Just that.

Just received a letter stating my child has been selected at random to have the nose swab at home,

Has anyone else had it?

My friend’s son has had it. He’s 17. It’s for an antibody test. Friend said the letter said they were testing 50,000 people randomly selected.

I've been chosen, got the letter this morning

Oh good I’m glad it’s not just us lol

Yes 10year old son

Just to mention that the nose swab isn't for the antibody test, so I think people on this thread are talking about different things.

Throat and nose swab - RT-PCR test for current infection

Blood sample - antibody test for past infection
