Anyone listening to PMQs? Is this a typo? "He [Johnson] says the government is massively increasing its effort, going up to 250,000 tests a day."

They have been promising increasing to 25,000 a day for a while now, so expect its a typo

And a reminder.

25,000/day = testing all NHS frontline staff in just over 3 weeks. Add in another 175,000 volunteers and that's another week.

25,000/day = testing UK population in 7 and a bit years.
