The NHS Test & Trace service ensures that anyone who develops symptoms of Covid-19 can quickly be tested to find out if they have the virus, helps trace close recent contacts of anyone who tests positive for coronavirus and, if necessary, notifies them that they must self-isolate at home to help stop the spread of the virus

The government is introducing this service to help return life more to normal, in a way that is safe and protects our NHS and social care. The service will allow to trace the spread of the virus and isolate new infections and play a vital role in giving early warning if the virus is increasing again, locally or nationally.
