COVID-19: Derby-based company to produce 20 million rapid coronavirus tests

It's hoped that alongside the vaccine rollout, mass rapid testing will help life to return to normal.

Dr Gabriel Scally, a visiting professor of public health at the University of Bristol and a member of Independent SAGE, told Sky News:"Lateral flow tests have a role to play but it's a very specific role because they do miss a lot of cases. They are very good at detecting people if their virus levels are very high.

"It could be 40-50% have been missed - maybe more - of people who do actually have the virus, but it doesn't show up on the tests so there is a danger of them providing some degree of false reassurance."Zahawi 'confident' UK will meet vaccine target
