Natacha Bines & Anna Crispe: Pandemic shows a new future for data in public health

09 April 2021 The Suffolk CoronaWatch project has allowed the council to turn data into decisions and evidence into actionable insight, write the head of population insight at Public Health Suffolk, Suffolk CC, and the assistant director, knowledge & intelligence, at Suffolk CC. For a long time, local authority public health teams have grappled with incomplete, out of date, and restricted public health data. For many datasets, such as smoking, cancer diagnostics, obesity statistics and hospital admissions, these issues remain. However, Covid-19 has presented both challenges and opportunities in the way we work with and utilise local public health datasets. Like many other local authorities, Suffolk has needed to adapt and innovate to analyse Covid-19 data, and the Suffolk CoronaWatch tools have enabled us to turn data into decisions, and evidence into actionable insight.

BMG Research quizzed 1,400 people across the county for a survey on coronavirus in February and March, as part of a commission by Suffolk Resilience Forum and the county council. That survey aimed to collate thoughts on vaccines, how willing people are to comply with restrictions, testing and self-isolating and communication of key coronavirus updates. On vaccines, 84% said they are likely or very likely to take up a Covid-19 vaccine as soon as they are eligible - below the 90% national figure.
