Dr Ellie Cannon self-tests for coronavirus every Friday as part of the Oxford Vaccine Trial.
Every week I have to take a swab at home to test if I have COVID-19. This is probably the worst part of the trial for me and not something I look forward to each week. The swab kits are the same as the NHS self-test kits you can order if you have symptoms.
Each week, 24 hours after I post my swab kit in the local priority post box, I get a text with my results, which have all been clear. Returning to the hospital after a month, I was reassessed to see how I had fared after the vaccination and how I have been generally.
