Through mass testing, it is hoped lateral flow tests could help ease lockdown restrictions in the UK.
With mass testing in place, people could be tested in places like universities and care homes, which will help to identify people positive with the virus who will then need to self-isolate.
Lateral flow tests could also be carried out to allow people to attend cinemas, theatres or sporting events.
There is also hope lateral flow testing could help to ease quarantine restrictions on air travel in the future.
