I realise the best people to answer this question are Chronomics, but it's not in their FAQs, they aren't answering any emails, and their phone line doesn't connect.

Travelling to Spain
Hi, I am also travelling to Spain next week – and need clarification of this information. We are a family of four, 2 double jabbed adults, one 5-year-old and one baby.

Boots lost my pre-departure PCR test
I've just returned from a long-postponed visit to family in Ireland (great) but my carefully planned travel turned into a nightmare thanks to the incompetence of Boots PCR testing and their associated lab.

Day 2 Test
Can anyone help? If I’ve had both jabs and return from an Amber country then I think I’m correct in saying that I only need a test on/before day 2. Problem is I tested positive on July 6th and they tell you not to have another PCR test for 90 days? So what test do I do on return before day 2?Thanks
