Details
The publication of statistics for NHS Test and Trace (England) will end on 23 June 2022. Following policy changes to testing in the government’s plan for ‘Living with COVID-19’, including the end of free universal testing for the public on 1 April 2022, there has been an overall decline across all statistics within these publications. These publications will therefore be discontinued. Data will be published as usual on 9 June 2022 and 23 June 2022.
For information on testing, case rate, hospitalisation and deaths, refer to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) dashboard.
