<p>TBH, until SK53 mentioned PCR test kits, I had no idea what the

<p>My simple mind thought 'tag what you see', hence the reference to
'PRIORITY POST BOX' rather than C19 PCR test kits (although they
also say 'Supporting the NHS' which should have been a clue).</p>

<p>BTW - Thanks for others on the thread for the extra D-suffix info
and, many extra points for the Ross Anderson link. Reality is
sadly complex and seldom awesome.<br>
