This is a story of three parts: misleading advertisements on the government’s own website, high prices for tests which cost much less abroad, and a public system ripe for private manipulation.

From the firm whose research sparked investigations by the Advertising Standards Agency, UK government, and the Competition and Markets Authority, this podcast is a deep dive into the UK's coronavirus testing system for travellers. Find out how Fideres investigated, and what they learned about the lucrative market for private Covid-19 testing.
