Free lateral flow testing ends in England from April 1 as the shift moves to 'living with Covid' strategy.
It means most people will no longer be able to get free lateral flow or PCR tests from the Government in England. But testing will continue for staff in social care settings like hospitals and care homes.
Those visiting people in care homes will want to take care over Covid and protect their loved ones and fellow residents. But if you want a test before you go and visit somebody in a care home, you will likely have to fork out for one yourself.
