A student nurse is terrified she could infect her family with coronavirus after being told she will not receive a test before going home for Christmas.
Erin Hathaway, who works 12-hour unpaid shifts as part of her placement, is desperate to find out if she poses a risk to her relatives over the festive period.
She claimed her placement hospital told her she would not be able to get a test, forcing her to contemplate going private, Lancs Live reports.
The student nurse, from Blackpool, shared her fury about not being allowed a test, saying it made her feel unappreciated. Erin explained how she will miss the December 15 deadline for tests put in place by the University of Manchester.
