Test and Trace puts 32k Brits into coronavirus quarantine in first week – but thousands refuse to give details

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. The more that do the better. Meanwhile, Matt Hancock said the service is a vital part in easing the lockdown - and he urged every Brit to play their part.The Health Secretary said: "The service is key to helping us return to a more normal way of life.
