Tents erected at Jubilee Hospital in Huntly

TENTS have been erected in the car park at Huntly's Jubilee Hospital for testing staff.

The tents are currently not operational and sit behind fencing, but are acting as a precaution in case extra capacity is needed for coronavirus tests.

An Aberdeen Health and Social Care spokesperson said: "The tents that have been erected at Jubilee Hospital are to give us capacity, should we require it, for any future testing of staff."

It is currently unknown how long the tents will remain outside the hospital.
