Symptomatic PCR testing
You must book a PCR test if you have:
- COVID-19 symptoms
- have had a positive lateral flow test
You also must self-isolate, along with your household, while you wait for the results.
The main symptoms of COVID-19 are a high temperature, a new, continuous cough and a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste.
To book a test visit GOV.UK or call 119. Please do not visit One Lexicon as the site only offers lateral flow tests.
