Covid-19 Test Centres
Club customers in Stanley, were asked to self-isolate following Covid-19 cases traced back to the WMC. Council staff along with Public Health England and NHS Test and Trace worked together to contact as many people as possible who visited the club on 9, 10 and 11 August to advise them to self-isolate.
To increase access to coronavirus testing, a mobile testing unit was arranged and located in Stanley from tomorrow Friday, 21 August. This was the first such centre in our area but they would become common place before long.
Testing was available for anyone who had symptoms of coronavirus such as a high temperature, a new continuous cough, and a loss or change to your sense of taste or smell and at first people had to book a test online or phone.
