Tests must be booked in advance at nhs.uk/coronavirus or by calling 119 or using the NHS Covid-19 app. You cannot just turn up for a test.

Only people with coronavirus symptoms should book a test. The symptoms are a new, continuous cough, a high temperature, and a loss or change in sense of smell or taste.

The NHS says anyone with symptoms should self-isolate immediately, along with anyone in your household or support bubble.

If you have symptoms, you need to isolate for at least 10 days. You will need to isolate for 14 days if someone you live with has tested positive or has symptoms or if you've been told to self-isolate by NHS Test and Trace.

It is a legal requirement to self-isolate if you test positive or are told to self-isolate by NHS Test and Trace.
