Dulwich Mobile Unit- Drive-through COVID testing

[Rosebud00]

I?ve got a drive-through COVID test appointment at the ?Dulwich Mobile Unit?. The address And postcode I?ve been given is for the Dulwich Common, but this still seems like quite a wide area to pinpoint the testing centre within. Has anyone been here already and is it easy to find? I can?t find any additional info online. Thanks

Looking at pictures it seems to be in the grounds of dulwich college

That's all very well if a) you have a car and b) you are well enough to drive there!

But better than nothing I suppose.

What kind of testing is it, do we know? Is it still the hopelessly inaccurate swab up the nostril/down the throat or have things improved in the last few weeks?

It would be the swab (checking if you currently have it). The antibody test (checking if you have had it) is not yet available to the masses I think.

Problem with the swab is that it should be done on day 1-3 ideally of symptoms, although up to day 5 is ?acceptable?. And yes, it?s not always accurate.
