Student Covid test plans 'a recipe for Christmas chaos'

A MASS coronavirus testing scheme for students starting today ahead of a travel window for their return home has been slammed a “recipe for chaos” by the University College Union (UCU).
Universities Minister Michelle Donelan has said that the government’s end-of-term travel guidance would allow students to return to their families for Christmas as safely as possible.
The testing programme is expected to run for just over a week until December 9. The travel window will start on Thursday and is also scheduled to end on December 9.
