How to report a Covid test result and what to do if it's positive, negative or void

Coronavirus infections and hospital admissions rose in England last week, but more than a quarter say they would still go to work if they tested positive.

Office for National Statistics data shows 3.8 million were estimated to have coronavirus in the week to July 13/14. That's a rise of seven per cent from the 3.5 million recorded the previous week.

This is the highest estimate for total infections since mid-April. But is still below the record high of 4.9 million seen at the peak of the Omicron BA.2 wave at the end of March.
