The number of deaths registered in England and Wales due to and involving coronavirus (COVID-19). Breakdowns include age, sex, region, local authority, Middle-layer Super Output Area (MSOA), indices of deprivation and place of death. Includes age-specific and age-standardised mortality rates.

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.

In mid-January, there will be about 1,200 COVID-19 vaccination sites in the United Kingdom. This vaccination program, described as the biggest in NHS history, aims at offering jabs to most care home residents by the end of January and the most vulnerable by mid-February. Vaccinations will be available at over a thousand general practitioner-led sites, 223 hospitals, and seven mega centers. These centers will be capable of delivering thousands of vaccinations each week.

Furthermore, the UK has plans to step up capacity even further in the coming weeks, bringing 200 pharmacy-led pilot sites and a further 43 mass vaccination centers into play. That would take the total number of coronavirus vaccination hubs to about 1,500. The first seven mega centers will open in Birmingham, Bristol, London, Manchester, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Stevenage, and Surrey.

Provisional age-standardised mortality rates for deaths due to COVID-19 by sex, local authority and deprivation indices, and numbers of deaths by middle-layer super output area.

According to a survey conducted in the United Kingdom (UK) in April 2022, 4.13 percent of all people aged between 35 and 49 years reported to be suffering from long COVID symptoms, the highest share across all age groups. Furthermore, around 3.7 percent of the population aged 50 to 69 years were estimated to suffer from long COVID. Overall, around 863 thousand people in the UK reported their ability to undertake daily activities and routines was affected a little by long COVID symptoms.

Present state of COVID-19 As of May 2022, over 22 million COVID-19 cases had been reported in the UK. The largest surge of cases was noted over the winter period 2021/22. The incidence of cases in the county since the pandemic began stood at around 32,624 per 100,000 population. Cyprus had the highest incidence of COVID-19 cases among its population in Europe at 75,798 per 100,000 people, followed by a rate of 51,573 in Iceland. Over 175 thousand COVID-19 deaths have been reported in the UK. The deadliest day on record was January 20, 2021, when 1,820 deaths were recorded. In the UK, a COVID-19 death is defined as a person who died within 28 days of a positive test.

Preventing long COVID through vaccination According to the WHO, being fully vaccinated alongside a significant proportion of the population also vaccinated is the best way to avoid the spread of COVID-19 or serious symptoms associated with the virus. It is therefore regarded that receiving a vaccine course as well as subsequent booster vaccines limits the chance of developing long COVID symptoms. As of April 27, 2022, around 53.2 million first doses, 49.7 million second doses, and 39.2 booster doses had been administered in the UK.

It builds on and incorporates, the British Household Panel Survey (BHPS), which began in 1991.

The Understanding Society COVID-19 Study, 2020-2021 is a regular survey of households in the UK. The aim of the study is to enable research on the socio-economic and health consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the short and long term. The surveys started in April 2020 and took place monthly until July 2020. From September 2020 they took place every other month until March 2021 and the final wave was fielded in September 2021. They complement the annual interviews of the Understanding Society study. The data can be linked to data on the same individuals from previous waves of the annual interviews (SN 6614) using the personal identifier pidp. However, the most recent pre-pandemic (2019) annual interviews for all respondents who have taken part in the COVID-19 Study are included as part of this data release. Please refer to the User Guide for further information on linking in this way and for geographical information options.

Understanding Society (the UK Household Longitudinal Study), which began in 2009, is conducted by the Institute for Social and Economic Research (ISER) at the University of Essex, and the survey research organisations Verian Group (formerly Kantar Public) and NatCen. It builds on and incorporates, the British Household Panel Survey (BHPS), which began in 1991.

The Understanding Society COVID-19 Study is a regular survey of households in the UK. The aim of the study is to enable research on the socio-economic and health consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the short and long term. The surveys started in April 2020 and took place monthly until July 2020. From September they took place every other month until March 2021 and the final wave was fielded in September 2021. They complement the annual interviews of the Understanding Society study.

A file is provided for each wave of the Understanding Society COVID-19 study to date, containing the Local Authority District geographic variable and a personal identification serial number (pidp) for file matching to the main Understanding Society COVID-19 study (SN 8644). There are two types of waves: web waves have a filename postfix of _w and telephone waves have a filename postfix of _t.

In addition, this study also contains Local Authority District geographic variables that can be matched to a dataset released with the main Understanding Society COVID-19 study containing data taken from waves 10 and 11 of the main Understanding Society survey, specifically for the respondents in the COVID-19 study. This file is named jk_oslaua_cv and as well as the LSOA11 geographic variable, it also contains a personal identification serial number (pidp) and a household identification serial number for both wave 10 (j_hidp) and wave 11 (k_hidp). Further details can be found in the Understanding Society COVID-19 User Guide.

Further information can be found on the Understanding Society COVID-19 website, including Data documentation. A list of Understanding Society COVID-19 Research Outputs (regularly updated) is also available.

New edition information

For the seventh edition (December 2021), the new data file for wave 9 has been deposited.

Main Topics:

This dataset contains Local Authority District geographic variables for use with the Understanding Society COVID-19 study.

Covid vaccinations administered by local area since 8th December 2020. It includes the calculated percentage of the 12+ population who have received all required vaccinations and/or boosters.Population estimates are based on National Immunisation Management Service counts.

Information from a new module of questions included in the Telephone-operated Crime Survey for England and Wales (TCSEW) around perceptions of crime, the police and anti-social behaviour during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, feelings of safety and experiences of harassment. Data on children’s online activity are also presented. These tables are no longer produced.

To record the information required to evaluate the potential risk of Covid-19 infection, as part of professional screening or self-assessment.

This is based on - The current NHS-111 UK self-assessment app at https://111.nhs.uk/covid-19 - A similar risk assessment app developed for pre-hospital admission by DIPS.no - Public Health England COVID-19: investigation and initial clinical management of possible cases https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/wuhan-novel-coronavirus-initial-investigation-of-possible-cases

The exact risk factors are subject to continual update as the disease progresses.

Note that a critical part of the information, exposure locations, has been left open, so as to allow the list to be updated very regularly and in alignment with local or national policy.

We have decided to leave in 'older' questions such as 'Exposure to birds in China' until such time that we get clear professional guidance that these are no longer necessary or useful.
