Test and Trace
NHS test and trace: how it works
The service will allow us to trace the spread of the virus, isolate new infections, and play a vital role in giving us early warning if the virus is increasing again, locally or nationally.
An overview of the NHS test and trace service, including what happens if you test positive for coronavirus (COVID-19) or have had close contact with someone who has tested positive, is available on the government's NHS Test and Trace: how it works web page.
