The Thursday figures included 50,000 "testing kits" that they posted to anyone they could scrounge up an address for, many of which were missing parts of the kit. It was pure bullshit.
(the BBC merrily ran "testing target reached" headlines, because of the unique way it's funded)
But they are able to use those kits multiple times in the figures
When they are sent out
When a replacement with all necessary parts is sent out
When the testing is done
When the test is returned
When the test is analysed
When the results are known.
