Belair Park - Covid Testing today


Recommended Posts

  • 2 weeks later...

My wife and I have developed mild sore throats so I got tested at the Dome today - a drive-through.


All very efficient and painless and about 20 cars at the huge Dome carpark with any number of his-vis staff waving you through. You do the test yourself whilst being watched by staff with your windows closed. They only open an inch to give you the pack and an inch at the end to pop it in a box. Slight gag and mild irritation to the nose but nothing untoward.


I did consider a nearer walk-in but as you said my instinct is that it would potentially be riskier (though probably isn't).

It's an outdoor venue and the guys and gals you deal with stay away from your car, only passing the kit and guidance through you car window which remains marginally ajar as instructed (not sure if you can turn up without a vehicle). They did a good job I reckon and it looked a lot less risky than pubs, loos, service stations, shops, gyms etc. simply because of the distancing measures in place. 18 hours for a result. Good job.
