My father in law passed away due to Covid and to go for his last rites and perform the rituals we have to go through these multiple Covid tests when going and on return. The cost is prohibitive and extortionate. The pandemic has hit our income hard and such expenses that have to be made push us into even more debt. Airline tickets are already very expensive.
Testing is of course extremely important and required to keep our country safe. But all we ask is that the cost is made reasonable. It seems as though the kits required to be purchased for those who have to travel must be done so from CTM North, which appears to be a private company. I just hope this money is going to the NHS as the kits are the same as the NHS kits and not being pocketed by a private company.
