Covid testing available today due to high demand

Today was meant to be a day off for testing staff but due to high demand, Tórshavn’s testing centre will be open this afternoon.

Almost 7,000 Covid tests were carried out over the Christmas period, and not everyone who wanted to get tested managed to book a slot.

To accommodate this high demand, the testing centre at Tórshavn’s ferry terminal will be open today from 3.30pm to 5.30pm. Pre-register here or book a time slot on 304545.

The original testing schedule for the holiday season remains unchanged until further notice and can be viewed here.
