Key workers and families to be offered coronavirus tests, says Matt Hancock

The health secretary announces testing is to be made be available to millions of workers and their families in England, with appointments bookable online from Friday. The system involves a dramatic increase in who can be tested for the virus, as the government continues to try to reach its target of 100,000 daily tests by the end of April.

Here is a useful question for the Guardian to ask Hancock, rather than the usual nonsense. What does the government plan to do to maximise the availability of tests, rather than the number of tests, which is in a surplus, for front line workers?

Maybe if the media stated asking the right questions they could do something useful, rather than just political point scoring.

Make the tests mandatory. Especially for women.
