The COVID-19 Health Inequalities Monitoring in England (CHIME) tool brings together data relating to the direct impacts of coronavirus (COVID-19) on factors such as mortality rates, hospital admissions, confirmed cases and vaccinations.
By presenting inequality breakdowns – including by age, sex, ethnic group, level of deprivation and region – the tool provides a single point of access to:
In the September 2022 update, data have been updated for deaths, hospital admissions and vaccinations. Data for confirmed cases are no longer being updated in the tool and March 2022 remains the most recent data point.
Confirmed cases for ethnic groups, which had previously only been available to December 2021, have now been updated to March 2022. Two changes have been implemented for confirmed cases by ethnic group. The change in https://ukhsa.blog.gov.uk/2022/02/04/changing-the-covid-19-case-definition/" class="govuk-link">COVID-19 case definition, which was made in February 2022, has now been implemented. The method of assigning an ethnic group for confirmed cases has also changed. These changes have resulted in revisions to the trends reported for confirmed cases for all ethnic groups. Methods of assigning ethnicity for data within CHIME are documented
Changes have also been made to the confirmed case rates presented for all ages, with age-standardised rates replaced by crude mortality rates.
The next updates will be 09:30 on 15 December 2022.

Early years and childcare providers must notify Ofsted of any serious illness or accident to a child in their care. This includes a confirmed case of coronavirus in the setting.
Providers must notify Ofsted as soon as reasonably practical, and in any case within 14 days of the incident occurring. Notifications received in one week could represent confirmed cases which occurred during the 2 previous weeks.
If there are multiple reported cases at a setting at one time, a notification can include more than one confirmed case. This means that the number of notifications received does not necessarily correlate with the number of confirmed cases in a setting.
The data is accurate at the time of publication and may be updated at a later date if we receive delayed information.
The release will run to April 2021, subject to review.
Providers must follow guidance from Public Health England (PHE) about what to do in the event of a reported case of coronavirus in a setting.

This publication was archived on 12 October 2023. Please see the Viral Respiratory Diseases (Including Influenza and COVID-19) in Scotland publication for the latest data. This dataset provides information on number of new daily confirmed cases, negative cases, deaths, testing by NHS Labs (Pillar 1) and UK Government (Pillar 2), new hospital admissions, new ICU admissions, hospital and ICU bed occupancy from novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in Scotland, including cumulative totals and population rates at Scotland, NHS Board and Council Area levels (where possible). Seven day positive cases and population rates are also presented by Neighbourhood Area (Intermediate Zone 2011). Information on how PHS publish small are COVID figures is available on the PHS website. Information on demographic characteristics (age, sex, deprivation) of confirmed novel coronavirus (COVID-19) cases, as well as trend data regarding the wider impact of the virus on the healthcare system is provided in this publication. Data includes information on primary care out of hours consultations, respiratory calls made to NHS24, contact with COVID-19 Hubs and Assessment Centres, incidents received by Scottish Ambulance Services (SAS), as well as COVID-19 related hospital admissions and admissions to ICU (Intensive Care Unit). Further data on the wider impact of the COVID-19 response, focusing on hospital admissions, unscheduled care and volume of calls to NHS24, is available on the COVID-19 Wider Impact Dashboard. Novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is a new strain of coronavirus first identified in Wuhan, China. Clinical presentation may range from mild-to-moderate illness to pneumonia or severe acute respiratory infection. COVID-19 was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organisation on 12 March 2020. We now have spread of COVID-19 within communities in the UK. Public Health Scotland no longer reports the number of COVID-19 deaths within 28 days of a first positive test from 2nd June 2022. Please refer to NRS death certificate data as the single source for COVID-19 deaths data in Scotland. In the process of updating the hospital admissions reporting to include reinfections, we have had to review existing methodology. In order to provide the best possible linkage of COVID-19 cases to hospital admissions, each admission record is required to have a discharge date, to allow us to better match the most appropriate COVID positive episode details to an admission. This means that in cases where the discharge date is missing (either due to the patient still being treated, delays in discharge information being submitted or data quality issues), it has to be estimated. Estimating a discharge date for historic records means that the average stay for those with missing dates is reduced, and fewer stays overlap with records of positive tests. The result of these changes has meant that approximately 1,200 historic COVID admissions have been removed due to improvements in methodology to handle missing discharge dates, while approximately 820 have been added to the cumulative total with the inclusion of reinfections. COVID-19 hospital admissions are now identified as the following: A patient's first positive PCR or LFD test of the episode of infection (including reinfections at 90 days or more) for COVID-19 up to 14 days prior to admission to hospital, on the day of their admission or during their stay in hospital. If a patient's first positive PCR or LFD test of the episode of infection is after their date of discharge from hospital, they are not included in the analysis. Information on COVID-19, including stay at home advice for people who are self-isolating and their households, can be found on NHS Inform. Data visualisation of Scottish COVID-19 cases is available on the Public Health Scotland - Covid 19 Scotland dashboard. Further information on coronavirus in Scotland is available on the Scottish Government - Coronavirus in Scotland page, where further breakdown of past coronavirus data has also been published.

This dataset is derived from reports to Public Health England (PHE) of infectious disease outbreaks in care homes. Care homes in this dataset refers to all supported living facilities such as residential homes, nursing homes, rehabilitation units and assisted living units.
The tables in this publication provide the latest management information on suspected or confirmed outbreaks of COVID-19 for upper tier local authorities, lower tier local authorities, government office regions and PHE centres.
Any individual care home will only be included in the dataset once. If a care home has reported more than one outbreak, only the first is included in this dataset.
As the details of an outbreak are investigated data will be subject to revision and the numbers in this dataset may change in future publications.
This dataset contains no indication of whether the reported outbreaks are still active.
Each weekly total refers to reports in the period Monday to the following Sunday.
As the COVID-19 situation in England continues to evolve, the previous report providing management information on care home outbreaks is no longer appropriate. Therefore, this publication ceased on 23 July 2020.
PHE continues to share all relevant case and outbreak data with local authorities and other stakeholders regularly and is developing additional integrated tools to support their ongoing need for intelligence. The COVID-19 surveillance report is published weekly.
