• Tried to order some lateral flow tests this morning, got all the way through to the final "Submit" stage but it said there was a problem.

    10 minutes later and it says all delivery slots are gone.

    Will get a code and pick some up at a local pharmacy.

  • They issued a statement a while ago. Apparently no shortage of tests, its more that they have reached their cap of delivery capabilities. Shippped 220k test kits yesterday. I assume they're asking Royal Mail very nicely for a solid.

    Given the government have said they'll pay all the settlements for the post master scandal as the post office can't afford to,I think Royal Mail will be fairly obliging

    They probably need an extra label printer and someone to stick them on boxes too. I can't picture 220k test boxes in my head but it probably takes up a bit of space including all the Royal Mail Yorks (which they sort into, I'm apparently Home Counties North). If course if they had a distribution centre that had been 90% idle they would be accused of being inefficient.
