Following last week’s announcement, KCC today announced the opening of five additional symptom-free (asymptomatic) testing centres in the course of this week. This will bring the total across the county to 19, including two in Sevenoaks District. The second of these, opening on Friday, is in the Sevenoaks Community Centre in Cramptons Road, Bat and Ball. This should be very accessible for residents of Sevenoaks North and Darent Valley, especially in areas such as Otford.
The asymptomatic testing programme in Kent has now carried out over 50,000 tests, and this figure should now rise rapidly. The current 14 sites can carry out 14,000 tests per day, and this should rise to 19,000 by the end of the week.
