    Testing strips question.

    I have the freestyle optium neo which is a new machine to me and all the strips come in foils.., I was wondering if you are able to take them out of the foils and store them in a pot or do they have to stay in the foils prior to testing :)

    Has anyone young from Group 6 been contacted for a covid vaccine yet?

    I'm 30 and haven't been contacted yet. My GP has only just begun group six so I'm sure I've got a while to wait still.
