For both the daughters at one and four years and the boy of ten years coughing and have a fever and sore throat. The fourth child has no symptoms.

the doctor in attendance could not help us. We got to know that the three over-burdened staff at the bookingtelefonen for coronatest had gone home at noon. 18.

Extra Magazine trying to get an interview with the Capital Region.

'There are many day-care institutions and schools, who demand that the children can produce a negative coronatest before they can return in the institution and the school. It is, among other things, in situations where there have been children in the school, there is a cold,' writes Capital Region Akutberedskab in an email to Ekstra Bladet.

'Many parents contacts Coronatest the Booking as the first, when they should have booked a time for testing for their children. Parents should contact their own doctor. Own doctor can create a requisition, then the parents subsequently may request for a booking via Coronatest Booking. Coronatest Booking has can not create a requisition for the children.'

'The increasing activity monitor. testing of children has led to queue to Coronatest Booking. We regret any inconvenience it has caused for the parents,' writes the Capital Region Akutberedskab.

'We work to reduce waiting times and encourage parents to contact their own doctor, so Coronatest Booking can help you book a time at first call.'
