This week we& #39;ve published products which look back at 6 months since lockdown was first introduced & the impact that Covid-19 has had on each of us, the economy & society. But there are challenges ahead and we& #39;ve also set out our future plans to provide the analysis needed. (1/7)
In our blog @DarrenM44 and I reflect on how across @ONS teams have been working hard to ensure that the public, businesses, civil society & policy makers have the information they need to manage the pandemic & its wider impacts. https://blog.ons.gov.uk/2020/09/24/6-months-since-lockdown-began-how-were-continuing-to-inform-during-the-pandemic/">https://blog.ons.gov.uk/2020/09/2... - this work continues (2/7)
Our products looking back over the last six months include & #39;Diary of a nation: Life in lockdown& #39; which presents people& #39;s experiences of the last six months in their own words, alongside our statistics: https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/healthandsocialcare/healthandwellbeing/articles/diaryofanationlifeinlockdown/2020-09-23">https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepop...

We have also published & #39;COVID-19 in 10 charts& #39;, which show how the emergence of Covid-19 has affected life, society and the economy: https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/healthandsocialcare/conditionsanddiseases/articles/coronaviruscovid19in10charts/2020-09-24">https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepop...

Looking forward we have set out our analytical work programme for the rest of the year covering health, social, labour market and economic dimensions. We will however also remain flexible and responsive to new demands as they emerge. https://www.ons.gov.uk/news/statementsandletters/ourfutureanalyticalworkprogrammeinresponsetocovid19autumn2020">https://www.ons.gov.uk/news/stat...

This builds on our first analytical work programme, published in June, which we have updated to include links to everything we have published since then. https://www.ons.gov.uk/news/statementsandletters/ourfutureanalyticalworkprogrammeinresponsetocovid19">https://www.ons.gov.uk/news/stat... (6/7)
As we say in our blog we really welcome any feedback - our aim continues to be to provide the best possible statistics & analysis to inform the UK& #39;s response to the pandemic. And we are hugely appreciative of the hard work of our teams & teams across the office to that end. (7/7)
