Changes to Covid-19 Testing & Isolation Advice

Most people in Scotland with Covid-19 symptoms are no longer advised to take a PCR test, and if you have respiratory symptoms that could be Covid, or another illness (and you have a fever or are unwell) – you should stay at home until you recover.

Free LFD test kits remain available for certain groups including health and social care workers, care home and hospital visitors, higher risk patient groups eligible for Covid-19 antiviral treatments, hospital patients, unpaid carers and people in prison. Further information can be found on NHS Inform.
