The anti-body tests aren't readily available yet.
Well, I went to Rodney Parade for a test, after being told I can just drive up, and was sent away with a phone number to call to make an appointment. So, yet again, xsnaggle comes up trumps.
I’ve been waiting for this all day
The wife got tested today in Tonyrefail, same script as I undertook recently. My observations were they weren’t exactly inundated but I’m wondering if these ‘drop in’ covid19 tests were a ‘one off’ or perhaps the ‘clap clinic’?
The thing is, I posted a link to the Welsh Government site yesterday and xSnaggle said he didn't give a toss what the official site said. He knew better. And, despite his record of getting things wrong in practically everything he spouts, a few people still seemed to take his assertion over the Welsh Government site.I’ve been waiting for this all day

xsnaggle, I have the day off on Friday - I can pop down to Cwm where there is a new site and check there if you want me to.
I was anticipating this, Murphy's Law!
This is not a wind-up!
I spoke to the guys in Cwm today and in Abercynon. They confirmed you can drive up and get a test. I'm quite serious, if you need one then you should have one, I'm not taking the piss.
If they refuse you ask the guy his name and tell me please!
I don't particularly need one - I don't live far from Rodney Parade so it was no bother for me to pop across in my lunch break.
The point is you are giving information that currently contradicts the Government site. If you are right, then there's little wonder that there is loads of confusion around because the Welsh Government are giving misleading information.
But, currently, I have to say that what I was told at Rodney Parade matches the Welsh Government site and so you are wrong in what you are saying as far as Newport goes. I'm not speaking for other sites, others have mentioned how it is in Cardiff, I have seen how it is in Newport.
When I booked a test for my wife at Abercynon I asked could I have one and was told no as I had no symptoms.
I'm only telling you what the operatives at the centres are telling me. not one centre or one man but several people at several centres. I'll ask again tomorrow and find out what is going on. I was like you and believed you had to have an appointment and I was told that is no longer so.
I will check.
I do not mean to misinform anyone, it may be too important, its not point scoring.
It is what I have actually been told by the people operating the sites .They say you can drive up register and have a test taken.
As I said, I'll ask again tomorrow and find out what is going on
xsnaggle if you deal with these centres then you are terrible at your job
That also seems to be in line with the Government website that I posted yesterday, but in complete contradiction to what xsnaggle has been told, and is now passing on as information.
I'm not saying he is being deliberately misleading, but I think I'll take what he is saying with a pinch of salt based on the overwhelming evidence that people can't simply drive up. I think I'll continue to take the advice of the official Government websites rather than ccmb, I know this sounds daft, crazy even.
Tests are in high demand at the moment, so it would make sense to have some sort of control over them. It also wouldn't make much sense to have potentially tens or hundreds of people descending on a site on a whim when the site is likely to actually have covid-19 cases being tested at the same time.
When I had the test there was a lot of emphasis on pre-identification to ensure that the correct individual was identified on arrival and to protect the people at the centres from both the delay of recording identities so that results could be returned and e-mail addresses authenticated and the interaction with the people concerned to get those details.xsnaggle if you deal with these centres then you are terrible at your job
It would be surprising if someone could rack up and do this from scratch.
Hopefully some good news regarding treatment.
I’ve been watching Dr Campbell’s videos since around February.
They are very informative and kind of fascinating While explained in laymen’s terms.
This video shows some very promising news on a treatment.

And all this in the Australian state of Victoria where the virus is making a comeback!

Some bad news

UK said was your hands back in the 70's
My hands WAS back in the 70's, with me on the end of them
I wonder how that friendly "I know my human rights" lady is getting on?

Is that the 'I'm a living woman' anti-masker?
Still making outraged films of supermarket workers trying to cope with her idiocy I assume.
Anyone showing symptoms has to self isolate for a minimum of ten days from bow on.

Also, plenty of talk about "second waves" in recent days, but I'm a bit confused as to when the first one is supposed to have ended?
How many Bow's am I allowed ?
More media bollocks scaremongering again. People who have been isolating since mid March were being told they might not have to after August 15th....how does that work?
How is that media scaremongering? They're just reporting the new government rules
It's like a reflex action with some people isn't it. They act as if there is some sort of handbook on how Covid is dealt with when, in fact, we're all in uncharted territory and learning as we go along.
