Staff working in care homes are to be tested every week starting on Monday, with residents tested every month, the government has said.
The expansion of testing comes as a whistleblower at one of the testing laboratories revealed dozens of shifts had been cancelled throughout May and June because of a lack of test samples.
Ministers hope that the expansion of testing will help to prevent the spread of infection to vulnerable residents.
