Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask Her Majesty's Government why they have not published data on the results of community testing for COVID-19; and whether they plan to publish this data.

The Department regularly publishes the results of our community testing programmes.

Community testing for research purposes falls within Pillar 4, and the number of tests processed is available on the Testing tab of the Coronavirus Data page on GOV.UK, with positive cases reported on the Cases tab of the same webpage.

This data brings together various studies which are outlined in the COVID-19 Surveillance guidance page of GOV.UK, with specific data and analysis from each study available for download.
