Testing Times But It Will Be Worth It

The mayor of the UK’s first mass Covid-testing trial city told the Daily Express yesterday he hopes it has earned them a merry Christmas.

Since November 6, 1,500 people in Liverpool – England’s first Tier 3 region – have tested positive for Covid-19, enabling them to self-isolate.

Already, 150,000, almost a third of the city’s 500,000 residents, have been tested by the 2,000-strong Army team.

A month ago, the city had more than 700 positive cases per 100,000, but that’s plunged to 222.
