Coronavirus testing in Wales to be expanded
More from the Welsh Government later on more regular testing for NHS and care home staff
Published 28th Jan 2021
Health Minister Vaughan Gething will provide an update on Wales' testing strategy today.
The new strategy will describe the expansion of the Welsh Government's testing approach.
It will include more regular testing for NHS and care home staff and patients in hospitals.
Since the last strategy was published, new testing technologies have demonstrated it is possible to test at far greater scale, frequency and speed than ever before.
And this update will take into account the greater understanding of the virus and the roll-out of the Welsh vaccination programme.
