New locations for West Lothian Asymptomatic Testing Sites

The sites provide free testing for Covid-19 for anyone who does not have symptoms. Not everyone who has Covid-19 develops symptoms, so getting tested and taking appropriate action if the test is positive can help prevent the virus from spreading. 
Anyone wishing to get tested can go along to these sites without an appointment, 7 days per week between 9.30am and 4.30pm. Testing kits can also be picked up for free from most pharmacies.
West Lothian Council currently operates two Asymptomatic Testing Sites (ATS).
The ATS currently at Bathgate Partnership Centre will close on Monday 9 August at 4.30pm, and re-open in Crofthead Community Centre, Templar Rise in Livingston, on Wednesday 11 August at 9.30am.
The ATS at West Calder Community Centre will close on Tuesday 10 August at 4.30pm, and re-open in Carmondean Community Centre, Deans in Livingston, on Thursday 12 August at 9.30am
The Scottish Ambulance Service also operate a Mobile Testing Unit that provides asymptomatic testing, which is currently based at Strathbrock Partnership Centre in Broxburn.
A West Lothian Council spokesperson said: "We would encourage everyone to get tested as an important method of reducing the spread of Covid-19 in West Lothian.
"The locations for the ATS sites move on a regular basis to ensure as many local residents as possible have the chance to access testing near them."
