Swab both throat and nose to detect Omicron - whatever the test instructions say!
I've not yet obtained any of the newer, rapid LFT kits which only require one to swab inside the nose (as I understand it) but it seems that that system doesn't necessarily detect the Omicron variant of Covid-19, perhaps because its primary symptom can be a sore throat.
So do follow this advice and continue to swab both, to ensure that your test result is as accurate as possible.
