Breakdown of testing by testing strategy ‘pillars’

• Pillar 1: swab testing in Public Health England (PHE) labs and NHS hospitals for those with a clinical need, and health and care workers
• Pillar 2: swab testing for the wider population, as set out in government guidance
• Pillar 3: serology testing to show if people have antibodies from having had COVID-19
• Pillar 4: serology and swab testing for national surveillance supported by PHE, ONS, Biobank, universities and other partners to learn more about the prevalence and spread of the virus and for other testing research purposes, for example on the accuracy and ease of use of home testing

16 June notes

To ensure consistent reporting across all pillars we have paused reporting the number of people tested due to an issue with the data for pillar 2. There are a small percentage of cases in pillar 2 where a person has been tested more than once or tested positive for coronavirus more than once. Any incorrect figures identified will be corrected.

The total number of tests has been revised since yesterday’s total after the following changes to the historical data:

• 201 tests added from the pillar 2 cumulative total
• 1,704 tests added to the pillar 3 cumulative total

The daily tests reported today have been added to this revised total rather than the total reported yesterday, so the cumulative total today is 1,905 higher than if you added the daily tests to yesterday’s total.

For pillar 2, the cumulative number of in-person tests today is 160 higher than if you added the daily tests to yesterday’s total, and the number of delivery route tests is 361 lower.

The total number of people tested in pillar 1 have been revised since yesterday’s total, after revisions to historical data for England.

The daily people tested reported today have been added to this revised total rather than the total reported yesterday.

The cumulative total today is therefore 8,841 higher than if you added the daily figure to yesterday’s total.
