The Kent County Council was forced to shamefully apologize after sending other people with imaginable symptoms of Covid-19 to a verification site that did not exist.
The incident was described as a “fiasco” through angry locals after they were told to move on to a clash in Sevenoaks.
Some even controlled to reserve an electronic slot, but were after “driving everywhere” looking for a position that wasn’t there.
The council says it’s investigating to locate “what didn’t work. “

He said the Otford Road front had “been indexed in government as a Covid verification site,” but then added, “This is not the case, this site is not a verification facility. “

He said he was investigating how the so-called check site gave the impression online.
