THE NHS Test and Trace programme is not yet 'gold standard' - as the first figures show a third of Covid-infected Brits could not be traced.

Of those 5,407 were traced and contacted, while 2,710 were not reached, or failed to share information about their contacts. The app "is the cherry on the cake, it's not the cake itself and what you are seeing today is the first baking of the cake is going reasonably well", she said. Prof Mark Harris, a virologist at the University of Leeds, said: “These stats are encouraging but of course there is room for improvement.

Prof Keith Neal, an epidemiologist at University of Nottingham, said: “Eighty-five per cent of contacts being reached is a good result, but we don’t know how many will self isolate for two weeks.

Coronavirus updates: Test and trace is 'critical' for future - Matt Hancock - BBC NewsCan rules be changed in social bubbles for children with additional needs? asks Katie from Preston 'The more successful the test and trace scheme is, the more we'll safely be able to relieve other lockdown measures,' replies Matt Hancock My civic duty is to not have my data stored for 20 years and handed to private UK & American companies. I decline, to quote Tory Thatcherite philosophy, there is no such thing as society! The good old BBC leads with the negative aren’t you concerned a third didn’t respond, not are you pleased 2 thirds did. Maintaining lockdown will help to break the chain of transmission. Opening non-essential shops will increase the chain of transmission. I can't believe I have to say that.
