How to get PCR test through NHS now

6 replies

DD tested positive on LFT last night. We're due to travel to Spain in easter hols. She's single vaxxed (was due 2nd next week but that can't happen now) so will need proof a recovery to enter Spain. Don't seem to be able to book PCR through NHS - do I need to take her to a private test centre or is there a way of getting an NHS PCR that I'm not seeing?

I'd claim one of the symptoms necessary to get a PCR on the NHS, to be honest.

Just go to a centre - book through the website pp posted and it will show you availability and nearest centres. I did it yesterday. Completely empty.
