> “Cases are continuing to rise across the county, and we need to do everything we can to help stop the spread.  
>  
> “This includes getting a test if people are experiencing coronavirus symptoms such as a high temperature, cough and loss of taste or smell.  
>  
> “We can’t afford to be complacent, especially over the festive period, so I would encourage people to think stick to the rules, and get tested if they are experiencing symptoms.”
