    I Might be wrong, but I think that 899 is higher than at any time before the Circuit/Fire Break/Lockdown
    Is this because of the mass testing of students going on by the Uni ?

    Some weeks ago I would have said yes as the student areas had higher incidence. Now the MSOA data shows that there are high number of cases in the areas like Butetown, Canton, Pontcanna, Tremorfa.

    I thought they were testing them en mass before they go home? It’s all set up outside by the uni/welsh office

    That test centre has been up and running for weeks. It's a walk in centre so I believe anyone can go. It was put near the Uni to encourage the students to have a test but is not exclusively for the university.
    It will be open after the university closes for Christmas, including Christmas day.
    The students are being tested en-masse but with the 20 minute flow test or whatever they call it. They have 2 about 4 days apart and if both are negative they can go home. They only have to attend the Test Centre if they have a positive test. Then need to have the normal more invasive test to confirm.

    Students are being tested en masse. The point is was trying to make is despite the student testing the areas of high incidence in Cardiff are not in the typical student areas like Cathay, Roath
