The government still has no plans to charge for lateral flow tests.

Everyone over the age of 12 has been able to order free kits to their homes since October 2021.

Rachel Williams, the Director of Testing and Tracing, says the testing strategy is under regular review.

"We have a secure stock of LFT kits on-island and supply chains in place should more stock be required.

Islanders are encouraged to test regularly and if symptomatic, book a free PCR test at the Airport Testing Centre."

The previous government announced in February, as part of its 'Covid-19 Post-Emergency Strategy' that free Covid testing would continue until at least June 2022.

Dr. Ivan Muscat told Channel 103 in June that free testing would continue for at least another month, amid a spike in coronavirus cases at the time.

The number of people known to have the virus in Jersey has fallen for a seventh consecutive week.

Free testing in England ended on 1 April.

The final two Rock-up Covid vaccination clinics are taking place today and tomorrow at Les Quennevais Sports Centre.

Friday 26 August: 12:30pm - 5:30pm.

Saturday 27 August: 9am - 3pm

The government is urging parents and carers to make sure their children are vaccinated before they return to school in September.

The Fort Regent Vaccination Centre is still open.

According to the latest government statistics, 41% of 12 to 15-year-olds and 55% of 16 to 17-year-olds have had two doses.
