People in Northamptonshire can access FREE coronavirus testing in the following locations:
Anyone experiencing any of the following coronavirus symptoms, however, mild, should isolate at home with the rest of their household and book a test:
- New, continuous cough
- High temperature
- Loss or change in sense of smell or taste
Tests can be booked online at nhs.uk/ask-for-a-coronavirus-test or by calling 119.
If you are a shift worker and it’s easier to drop into one of the sessions you will not be turned away but booking an appointment means you won’t be waiting and helps with social distancing.
People who test positive for COVID-19 will be helped by the NHS test and trace service to identify the people they’ve recently been in contact with so they can be alerted.
Anyone who has had close recent contact with someone with coronavirus must then self-isolate for 14 days, if they are advised to do so by the NHS test and trace service, to help contain the spread of infection.
