One in eight Britons admit they’ve NEVER taken a Covid test
Mask-wearing across the UK has fallen to its lowest level in two years and one in eight Brits admit they’ve never taken a Covid test, a new poll has revealed.
Almost half of the YouGov respondents feared the Covid-19 situation was worsening in the UK (45 per cent), as cases stagnate, while deaths, which always lag infections by about two weeks, and hospitalisations creep up.
Less than a third of Brits aged 18 to 24 admit they still wear masks in public places, while those aged 65 and above are the age group most likely to do so (60 per cent).
With most people (58 per cent) self-testing using a lateral flow within the last month, around one in eight Brits (13 per cent) say they have never taken one.
It comes as Health Secretary Sajid Javid said workers with Covid symptoms will no longer need to take a test from tomorrow as England continues its post-pandemic return to normalcy.
Rather than get a lateral flow or PCR test, those with symptoms such as a high temperature and a cough will be advised to stay at home.
Free testing provisions will be scrapped for millions from Friday, and replaced with lateral flow test offers from pharmacies across Britain.
Eight in ten respondents (81 per cent) said they would take a lateral flow test if they thought they might have COVID-19 symptoms with around one in eight (13 per cent) saying that they would not.
But new advice from the Department for Health and Social Care suggests those with symptoms of a respiratory infection and a high temperature, or those who feel unwell, stay at home and still get a test.
The guidance, issued by Health Secretary Sajid Javid, is part of the Government’s new plan to treat Covid like other respiratory illnesses.
Mr Javid said:
‘Thanks to our plan to tackle Covid we are leading the way in learning to live with the virus. We have made enormous progress but will keep the ability to respond to future threats including potential variants.
‘Vaccines remain our best defence and we are now offering spring boosters to the elderly, care home residents and the most vulnerable.’
People with symptoms and those who have tested positive are urged to wear a mask, avoid close contact with vulnerable people and swerve crowded areas if they must leave home.
But hospitals and care home patients and staff will still be able to request free Covid tests, as will those at risk of serious illness. Others must pay.
Most visitors to care homes, hospitals and prisons will no longer have to take a test.
Experts have repeatedly called on ministers not to end the universal swabbing offer, warning it will leave them in the dark over major outbreaks in parts of the country.
SAGE has previously warned ending the scheme, which cost up to £2bn a month, would leave the country in the dark to a fresh wave and said poor people will be hit hardest.
Experts told said pushing through with the move could leave some of the most vulnerable people in society at risk.
Professor Denis Kinane, an immunologist and founding scientist at Cignpost Diagnostics, said:
‘I am concerned that the decision to end free tests from April 1 could leave some vulnerable groups at risk, particularly the immuno-suppressed.
‘This is worrying with the recent spike in case numbers and hospital admissions.’

Why would you take a test? They are less than useless.

Populations need to grow up and understand that their leaders in the west are just treating them like farm animals to be harvested as and when they see fit in whatever way they think they can get away with.
All anyone needs to do to stay fit and healthy is ensure they get all their vitamins and minerals in the required amounts daily and understand that for many Vitamins the RDA’s are are set artificially low to make you think you getting enough but are not if adhere to them.

There is no standardized, vetted, approved by the FDA or accurate test for covid. PCR tests were only emergency approved and never tested by the FDA for any kind of accuracy and efficacy. It even states on the package that these tests are not to be used as a diagnostic tool for any disease.
Last year, the CDC admitted that the PCR tests were basically useless and said they would have a new test in early 2022. So, where is it? The PCR test just over-cycles your DNA until it gets a mish-mash of particles which they claim are covid but have no proof. These experts will tell you anything to support big pharma’s desire to scare people into getting endless mRNA injections. The antigen tests are more than useless also.
So the entire fake pandemic is rocked back and forth by administering the PCR tests and if you haven’t figured out the game by now, you never will.

What “Tests”? RT-PCR is NOT a “Test” for starters, it was never designed to be used as a test and it’s inventor, Kary Mullis (RIP), was extremely vocal about this FACT.
It provides False Positives for the fun of it, which is more than useful if you want to Panic people with FALSE “Cases” for use in a Tyranical Medical Agenda. LFT is almost equally useless when it comes to telling the Truth.
Besides, it may help if “SARS-CoV-2” had been Proven to exist, first, instead of using SARS 1 as a template for a test.
Excessive FALSE Positives aside, I put it to you, that it is more about “Planting” Ethylene Oxide Gas-soaked Hygrogel near our Blood-Brain Barrier from the detachable fibres of the Nasopharyngeal Swabs, in order to:
a) Assist in the operation of the Bio-Warfare Nanotech, from the EXPERIMENTAL mRNA “injections”.
b) Cause Brain Cancer.
c) De-populate the entire Human Race.
d) Invade a Country by crippling it’s defence force and it’s civillians.
e) Probably ALL of the above, actually.
I have seen “Personally”, what is “Squirming” around in those “New and Unused” blue & white face nappies, when we breathe naturally onto them. (if you have genuine interest – You’ll find my videos under the name “Roo63”. Up to you.
There is also “Genuine and Honest Truthful footage of the Nanotech in the injections which Savage Jabbit and you lot “Wrongly” call “Vaccines”, as opposed to Illegal “Human Genetic Experiments”, which they truly are.
But you propagandists at the Daily Fail just keep on with pumping FEAR, to keep your fraudulent Covid agenda boiling, ready to use again, instead of telling the Truth to the people, which WILL come back, to bite you on the arse.
But you know people are starting to Learn, don’t you. Is that why the Mass Poisoning of the Country’s Water Supply with the Toxic Sodium Fluoride isn’t worth of being mentioned? Waiting for people to dumb down again?
Too late. Time to come clean and please don’t bother applying the label. Turn’s out that the “Conspiracy Theorists” have been Right all along. Now often called “Truthers” on Alternative Media” of course.
Have a nice existence 🙂

Of course, it would be far quicker to only test the injected, though. Seeing as 9/10 of them are taking up NHS beds, testing Positive for Covid. Test them for VAIDS and/or HIV, too.
