750,000 virus testing kits recalled – as strict lockdown measures enforced in Preston

Strict lockdown measures are now being enforced in Preston – with separate households banned from meeting each other anywhere indoors, after coronavirus cases rose substantially in the last week.

And up to three quarters of a million unused Randox testing kits which were sent to care homes and private homes across the UK are being recalled as a “precautionary measure”.
