This question was answered on 10th January 2022
During the Christmas period, people are encouraged to take a test before they mix with people in crowded enclosed places and visit someone who is at higher risk of getting seriously ill from COVID-19, such as an elderly relative. The Government’s current advertising campaign will support our testing guidance throughout December.
