This was raised with me the other day:

If the rapid testing kits give an accurate enough result to allow schools, factories, businesses etc to open and work why aren’t they good enough to allow us to meet?

People are still social distancing in work and wearing masks. That would be an odd club night! X

Because you could meet someone not tested

Because you can still carry the virus?

I agree, I’ll need to take you from behind though. At least to keep some kind of distance

It's a good point. I suppose it's about risk reductions and what is essential v what is desirable.

In theory though they should allow it. And we are patiently moving in that direction. Out of interest though I believe (happy to be proved wrong) that lft tests depend on how well the sample is taken and then in clinical condition have 75% accuracy for positive tests. Ie 1 in 4 is a false positive. Negatives I think were something like 98% accurate. And of course they may have improved in the last months.

Can you imagine the 1st date nerves as you both sit their waiting 30 minutes while your self test develops. And the disappointment when one comes back with a positive...

I know but how great would it be when both are negative and you could have some fun for the first time in months

Basically it has always been up to you if you wanted to meet. Most did not and rightly so. While the numbers are low it safer, these antigen test are as accurate as the PCR? So if you wanted to be sure get the PCR and make sure the other/s have too. Pretty safe but still breaking rules not laws. I guess they think kids education is more of a priority that our sexual gratification, bastards

Surely if you’ve sat in the garden together and done the tests at the same time and they are both negative that’s proof enough?

We completely agree with the OP if both couples etc take the test in front of each other in the garden while chatting, if all negative it defiantly would make things a lot safer for all. if the other couple etc have also had the vaccine that's about as safe as you can make it.

i will defiantly the way forward for us.

Because they're only 60-70% accurate outside of lab conditions, they're only really useful if you're being tested regularly, ideally daily.

On top of that, the majority of people haven't had full vaccines...
