On 21 February 2022 the Prime Minister set out a new plan for ‘Living with COVID-19’ with the end of free universal testing for the general public on 1 April 2022. As a result the frequency of this publication and accompanying data tables will reduce from weekly publications to 2-weekly publications of weekly data from 14 April 2022 (period covering 31 March 2022 to 6 April 2022). Furthermore, it is anticipated that the changes in testing policy will result in a noticeably smaller publication, with a reduction in data output tables. Details of affected data output tables will be communicated on 31 March 2022.
The data reflects the NHS Test and Trace operation in England since its launch on 28 May 2020.
This includes 2 weekly reports:
1. NHS Test and Trace statistics:
- people tested for coronavirus (COVID-19)
- people testing positive for COVID-19
- time taken for test results to become available
- people transferred to the contact tracing system and the time taken for them to be reached
- close contacts identified for cases managed and not managed by local health protection teams (HPTs), and time taken for them to be reached
2. Rapid asymptomatic testing statistics: number of lateral flow device (LFD) tests reported by test result.
There are 4 sets of data tables accompanying the reports.
