Moray is to get its own walk-through test centre in Elgin which should be operational by Friday.

Richard Lochhead stated that the movee has been confirmed to him by NHS Grampian.

Moray's MSP said: "This is something I’ve been in correspondence with NHS Grampian over in recent weeks, so I’m pleased there’s now a plan in place.

"I’m grateful to the health board, the council and other authorities for their hard work in making this happen.

"Testing is a big part of keeping the spread of Covid under control and although we’ve had a low number of cases locally, there’s no room for complacency.

"A dedicated walk through test centre for Moray will undoubtedly help keep our communities safe, and will of course mean less people having to travel out of the area for tests, especially as testing is expanded.”
