I am in two minds. I listened to all the reports and the radio interviews this morning as well. There is a danger we will further add to the burden faced by those on the ground in trying to deal with testing and tracing. It is obvious they were overwhelmed last week by virtue of the large numbers of people who were tested, had reported for testing and some who had not reported for second turns. All of that is creating a burden on the system. We need to acknowledge the work they are doing in challenging circumstances and recognise they are doing their very best.
