So he's either jumping the queue and taking up resources that should be used for genuinely sick people, or it's not for tests.
He's probably considered a Key Worker, and as such his treatment is prioritised to get him back to work, in the same sense that frontline NHS staff are fast tracked for testing. Lots of people will be against his getting special treatment for obvious reasons, but if he succumbs, the alternative is Dominic Raab in charge. :(

Yeah this was my first thought. If you're an ordinary person the ambulance service won't take you to hospital unless you're dying, this is what happened to my colleague who had bad symptoms and was advised to call 999 by NHS 111.
