For the nose I was told to only go round the inside of each nostril, the swab doesn't need to go more than 5mm into the nose.

Ha! Tell that to the nurse who does ours...she goes several inches in, right to the back of your throat through both of our nostrils!

They're just being mean then.

There's no reason to conduct a nasopharyngeal swab like that, only a bog standard nasal swab.
