I try to keep from posting anything from Beau generally but this one hits pretty hard.

Yet more confusion.

Lateral flow tests (LFTs) are very good at detecting people most likely to spread Covid-19 and positive results should be trusted, say University College London researchers.

When LFTs were introduced, they were criticised for being less accurate than PCR tests, which are analysed in a lab.

But the study found rapid tests were "a very useful public health tool" for stopping the spread of the virus.

One third of people with Covid can spread it while showing no symptoms.

Based on the UCL research, Prof Irene Petersen, lead study author, said people who get a positive LFT result "should trust them and stay at home".

But government guidance says people must get a follow-up PCR test after a positive LFT to confirm they have Covid - and they can end their self-isolation when they get a negative result in a PCR test.

NHS Test and Trace suspends Covid testing provided by a private laboratory in Wolverhampton amid fears up to 43,000 people were given the wrong result.

Dr Jenny Harries, the head of NHS Test and Trace, says it is not yet clear how or why the laboratory might have given incorrect results.

Harries adds there will be a "serious incident investigation" to ensure there are not problems at other testing laboratories.

Earlier, a mass testing site in Berkshire asked people who recently got a negative result to book another test.

It comes after reports that some people received negative PCR tests after testing positive using lateral flow devices.

But health officials say the problem is "an isolated incident attributed to one laboratory" and that they are investigating the cause.

Separately, travellers returning to England will be able to take cheaper lateral flow tests from 24 October.

"Too bad" he has his own opinion? I don't agree with a lot of the political or personal views of the musicians and bands I listen to. But that's not why I listen to them. Their personal beliefs don't make their music less great.

No place in Skybirds brave new world for wrong thinkers.
