Enhanced Covid Testing to Tackle Glasgow's Southside Outbreak

Glasgow City Council and Glasgow City Health & Social Care Partnership are working together to increase the amount of COVID-19 testing capacity in the areas affected by the current outbreak.

This has already included increasing the number of Local Test Sites carrying out PCR testing, as well as making all test sites in the city available for asymptomatic testing, rather than just symptomatic testing. Lateral Flow Tests have also been made available through southside mosques with Imams urging worshipers to collect tests for their families.
