1)My nephew was sent home from school and told to isolate. My sister and brother in law been trying to get home a test. They live in Portland, nearest test site identified on website was Southampton but no tests available. #TestingShambles
2) They kept trying for 4 days but could not book a test. Sometimes online for 4 hours at a time. Putting in all the details only to get a website error message #TestingShambles
3) On Monday my brother in law noticed a testing site in Weymouth, so drove in. 3 fully masked up staff in an empty site. He asked them why? They said no one had booked tests. He asked how long they had been there and they said two months. He said they didn’t appear on website
4) #TestingShambles the young man said they were desperate to do tests but had been told by their bosses they could not do tests without a barcode. My B i L said it wasn’t possible to get a barcode. They said they were very frustrated
#TestingShambles My B i L then went home to try again to book a test. Same website error message. My sister drove back to the site and was told the same. So isolating nephew unable to get a test despite an empty test centre. This is Richard Drax’s constituency. Write to him
