Harrogate’s Dragon Road coronavirus testing site is set to be replaced with mobile units after it closes on June 1.
The Dragon Road site is currently used to supply lateral flow tests as well as provide testing.
Dr Victoria Turner, public health consultant at North Yorkshire County Council, told a North Yorkshire Local Resilience Forum press briefing today that people would still be able to get lateral flow tests from 25 pharmacies in the district.
The county council already runs mobile testing sites across North Yorkshire during the week in areas such as Ripon, Scarborough and Selby from 9am until 3pm. Harrogate will adopt a similar approach.
Dr Turner said:
Meanwhile, a further two covid cases have been confirmed in the Harrogate district, according to latest Public Health England figures.
