'Turn off test & trace' | WORST workplace Covid outbreak sparks fury

The largest workplace outbreak of Covid-19 has happened at Government organisation the Driving and Vehicle Licensing Agency’s (DVLA) office sparking questions over how strictly coronavirus rules have been implemented.

Shockingly, more than 500 cases have been recorded at DVLA offices in Swansea as a new, more deadly strain of coronavirus circulates and despite Boris Johnson’s work from home where possible rules.

In fact, employees claim that people with symptoms were encouraged to return to work, vulnerable workers had work from home requests turned down and workers were asked to turn off test and trace so phones did not ping.

National newspaper The Guardian reported that Grant Shapps, Transport Secretary, is now under pressure to explain how such a shocking outbreak could occur at a workplace where the strictest rules should apply.
