This feature service contains COVID-19 data automatically updated from the Public Health England (PHE) API service, daily. Using this API, this service takes the current day request minus two days. Therefore the data will always be two days behind. This is a result of the delay between PHE's specimen date and reporting date.The Polygon Layers, which all contain spatial data, provide information about the latest cumulative figures at three geographies; Local Authority, Regions and Nations. The Tables, which are not spatially aware, provide historical data for each feature. The format of these tables allow you to use the Join tool with the Polygon Layers and create a time enabled layer. This can be used within a dashboard or on the animation tool to view patterns over time.

Data published on potential COVID-19 symptoms reported through NHS Pathways and 111 online Dashboard shows the total number of NHS Pathways triages through 111 and 999, and online assessments in 111 online which have received a potential COVID-19 final disposition. This data is based on potential COVID-19 symptoms reported by members of the public to NHS Pathways through NHS 111 or 999 and 111 online, and is not based on the outcomes of tests for coronavirus. This is not a count of people.

The Centre for Longitudinal Studies (CLS) and the MRC Unit for Lifelong Health and Ageing (LHA) have carried out two online surveys of the participants of five national longitudinal cohort studies which have collected insights into the lives of study participants including their physical and mental health and wellbeing, family and relationships, education, work, and finances during the coronavirus pandemic. The Wave 1 Survey was carried out at the height of lockdown restrictions in May 2020 and focussed mainly on how participants’ lives had changed from just before the outbreak of the pandemic in March 2020 until then. The Wave 2 survey was conducted in September/October 2020 and focussed on the period between the easing of restrictions in June through the summer into the autumn. A third wave of the survey was conducted in early 2021.

In addition, CLS study members who had participated in any of the three COVID-19 Surveys were invited to provide a finger-prick blood sample to be analysed for COVID-19 antibodies. Those who agreed were sent a blood sample collection kit and were asked to post back the sample to a laboratory for analysis. The antibody test results and initial short survey responses are included in a single dataset, the COVID-19 Antibody Testing in the National Child Development Study, 1970 British Cohort Study, Next Steps and Millennium Cohort Study, 2021 (SN 8823).

The CLS studies are:

• Millennium Cohort Study (born 2000-02) both cohort members and parents (MCS)
• Next Steps (born 1989-90) (NS)
• 1970 British Cohort Study (BCS70)
• 1958 National Child Development Study (NCDS).

The LHA study is:

• MRC National Survey of Health and Development, 1946 British birth cohort (NSHD)

The content of the MCS, NS, BCS70 and NCDS COVID-19 studies, including questions, topics and variables can be explored via the CLOSER Discovery website.

The COVID-19 Survey in Five National Longitudinal Cohort Studies: Millennium Cohort Study, Next Steps, 1970 British Cohort Study and 1958 National Child Development Study, 2020-2021 contains the data from waves 1, 2 and 3 for the 4 cohort studies. The data from all four CLS cohorts are included in the same dataset, one for each wave.

The COVID-19 Survey data for the 1946 birth cohort study (NSHD) run by the LHA is held under "https://beta.ukdataservice.ac.uk/datacatalogue/studies/study?id=8732" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">SN 8732 and available under Special Licence access conditions.

Latest edition information
For the fourth edition (June 2022), the following minor corrections have been made to the wave 3 data:

• corrections to a small number of cases where CW3_GROW and CW3_GROWB were incorrectly calculated
• recoded values and reformatted the code list for CW3_COVIDVAC as the original value of 3 was removed from the final version of the survey
  

From April 2020 participants from our main Understanding Society sample have been asked to complete a short web-survey. This survey covers the changing impact of the pandemic on the welfare of UK individuals, families and wider communities. Participants complete a regular survey, which includes core content designed to track changes, alongside variable content adapted as the coronavirus situation develops. Researchers will be able to link the data from this web survey to answers respondents have given in previous (and future) waves of the annual Understanding Society survey.

Technical and methodological data from the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Infection Survey, England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland.

Dataset no longer updated: Due to changes in the collection and availability of data on COVID-19, this dataset is no longer updated. Latest information about COVID-19 is available via the UKHSA data dashboard. The UK government publish daily data, updated weekly, on COVID-19 cases, vaccinations, hospital admissions and deaths. This note provides a summary of the key data for London from this release. Data are published through the UK Coronavirus Dashboard, last updated on 23 March 2023. This update contains: Data on the number of cases identified daily through Pillar 1 and Pillar 2 testing at the national, regional and local authority level Data on the number of people who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 Data on the number of COVID-19 patients in Hospital Data on the number of people who have died within 28 days of a COVID-19 diagnosis Data for London and London boroughs and data disaggregated by age group Data on weekly deaths related to COVID-19, published by the Office for National Statistics and NHS, is also available.

Daily data up to the most recent available will continue to be added in each weekly update. Data summary Local authority data Demographics Notes on data sources Source: UK Coronavirus Dashboard. For more information see: Coronavirus (COVID-19) in the UK - About the Data. Cases Data UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) reports new and cumulative cases identified by Pillar 1 and Pillar 2 testing. Pillar 1 testing relates to tests carried out in UKHSA laboratories or NHS Hospitals for those with clinical need, and health and care workers. Pillar 2 testing relates to tests carried out on the wider population in Lighthouse laboratories, public, private, and academic sector laboratories or using lateral flow devices. The cases data is published by day for Countries within the UK, and Regions, Upper Tier Local Authority (UTLA) and Lower Tier Local Authority (LTLA) within England. The data used here is taken from the regional and UTLA level cases data. Notice: Changes to COVID-19 case reporting As of 31 January 2022, UKHSA moved all COVID-19 case reporting in England to use an episode-based definition which includes possible reinfections. Those testing positive beyond 90 days of a previous infection are now counted as a separate infection episode (a possible reinfection episode). Previously people who tested positive for COVID-19 were only counted once in case numbers published on the daily dashboard, at the date of the first infection. Full details of the changes can be found here Changes to COVID-19 testing in England The availability of free COVID-19 tests in England changed on 1 April 2022. Information on who can access free tests has been published by UKHSA. Changes to patient testing in the NHS in England have also been published by NHS England. Deaths data Data on COVID-19 associated deaths in England are produced by UKHSA from multiple sources linked to confirmed case data. Deaths are only included if the deceased had a positive test for COVID-19 and died within 28 days of the first positive test. Postcode of residence for deaths is collected at the time of testing. This is supplemented, where available, with information from ONS mortality records, Health Protection Team reports and NHS Digital Patient Demographic Service records. Full details of the methodology are available in the technical summary of the PHE data series on deaths in people with COVID-19. Hospital admissions data UKHSA publish the daily total number of patients admitted to hospital, patients in hospital and patients in beds which can deliver mechanical ventilation with COVID-19. In England this includes COVID-19 patients being treated in NHS acute hospitals, mental health and learning disability trusts, and independent service providers commissioned by the NHS. Vaccination data UKHSA publish the number of people who have received a COVID-19 vaccination, by day on which the vaccine was administered. Data are reported daily and can be updated for historical dates as vaccinations given are recorded on the relevant system. Therefore, data for recent dates may be incomplete. Vaccinations that were carried out in England are reported in the National Immunisation Management Service which is the system of record for the vaccination programme in England. Only people aged 12 and over who have an NHS number and are currently alive are included. Age is defined as a person's age at 31 August 2021. The data includes counts of vaccinations by age band, dose, region, and local authority. Additional analysis of the vaccine roll out in London can be found here. ONS population estimates The counts of vaccines given has been converted to percentage of the population vaccinated using the ONS 2020 mid-year population estimates. This is a different population estimate to that used on the UK Coronavirus Dashboard for sub-national data. The UK Coronavirus Dashboard uses people aged 16 and over in the National Immunisation Management Service (NIMS), which is based on GP registrations. In more urban areas like London, NIMS is likely to give an overestimate of the population due to increased population mobility increasing the likelihood duplicate or out of date GP records. Due to the differences in population estimates the percentage of the population vaccinated given here will be higher than the figures included for London on the UK Coronavirus Dashboard.
