Home testing kits are now available from libraries and pharmacies across Suffolk as part of the fight against coronavirus.
Lateral flow devices (LFD) can now be obtained free from any library in the county, subject to stock availability and opening times, from Monday April 19.
Similarly, more than 130 NHS pharmacies across Suffolk will be taking part in the Pharmacy Collect scheme, where people can collect kits free of charge.
The Community Pharmacy scheme is being operated by Suffolk Local Pharmaceutical Committee which represents 136 community chemists including independents and those part of larger community pharmacy chains.
Regular testing is seen as key in controlling the spread of the virus as the UK’s vaccination programme continues.
