That's rubbish, the scumbag 'nasty party' have been sending out test kits in the post and yes some pubs are insisting on testing before entering the pub.

Not in the US, at least in New York State. The only restriction was it was reserved for "essential employees." But now that isn't a requirement anymore. You just have to make an appointment at most places.

Emergency Workers within my locale do have a capacity to get tested - although many of those who could, and perhaps should - can't be bothered.
Apathy, is often the cause of misfortunes
