New drive-thru coronavirus testing centre now open in Corwen

A new testing station has opened in Corwen to make it easier for people in the area to get checked for COVID-19.

The service for individuals who believe they have coronavirus symptoms, and people have been told they should only attend if they have one or more of the following symptoms:
•    a high temperature
•    a new, continuous cough
•    a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste

The drive-through facility has been set up in the Green Lane Car Park and will be in operation for the next two to three weeks.

This is not a walk-in service and people will need to make an appointment to have a test, according to the region’s health board.
