67,409 people tested

2684 +ve (246,406 total). 25 people tested for 1 +ve consistent with broadening the test cohort.

160 people who tested positive in pillar 1 NHS/PH labs died. (34,796 total). 14.12% CFR

BUT 1/ There were problems with the reporting portal yesterday.
2/ Most people (inc care homes) tested under pillar 2.
Their deaths not included. Why not?
900k+ pillar 2 tests claimed.

3/ There is a shortfall of 795,665 between tests claimed and people tested. That is a massive number. What is going on?

How long is the longest delay?
Super swift turn around of request to test to result is essential for testing to be effective. With the data being fed back to GPs and PH so they know where the “fires” are locally. Plus really agile prompt TRACE, ISOLATE, SUPPORT.

That is not happening under Pillar 2 tests.
There is no regional data returns, nor a breakdown by age, sex, ethnicity and occupation. There needs to be if early problems are to be identified.

Close the infection loop off.
