It wouldn't matter too much if they'd laid out how they wanted to count the tests up front. If they'd said it was going to include posted out tests, batch tests sent to care homes, a throat and nasal swab as two, then fair enough.
But they set off by saying it would be 100,000 PEOPLE tested. And even when they did great to get to 70k then they could have owned that still, but no, they opted to obfuscate, if not outright lie.
And again, it wouldn't matter too much if it wasn't for the fact that test and trace is needed to ensure we don't have a second bump.
