Hi, I am taking my 3 month old to a drive through this morning to test for covid, has anyone experienced this before? Will it be a swab in throat and up nose or something else? Can't find anything online!

Might just have to do their nose

We had our 5yo tested and they said under 5s you can just do their nostrils.
Hope it goes well for you. I have a 2 month old and really hope I don't have to test her.

Thank you, it was swab up both nostrils, hoping it's not CV!
