A new coronavirus test which could replace the existing a nose and throat swab is being piloted in Southampton.
People will be able to simply spit into a pot at home before the sample is sent off to check whether they have COVID-19.
If successful, the saliva test could become an alternative to the existing swab which some people find uncomfortable and can provoke coughing and spluttering.
