. @NAOorguk @CommonsSTC - can you investigate the delays in today's Covid reporting? If it's just a delay in reporting, that's one thing, but if these are delays into NHS Test and Trace system, that's another thing entirely. Would be good to see age/source of delayed cases https://twitter.com/avds/status/1312481833347502080

It is important to understand the reason for the delay. If this is a reporting delay, that is bad enough, but if there have been delays in putting these cases into the NHS Test and Trace database, that can have serious implications for spreading the disease

We also need to know if there is commonality in the source of these cases. We have seen that private testing and university testing has been carried out, and it is still not clear how these results (both positive and negative) are being routed into the DHSC system.
