UK lawmakers say COVID-19 test and trace system yet to prove its worth

England's COVID-19 test and trace system has not yet proven its worth as there is little evidence of its overall effectiveness, the British parliament's Public Accounts Committee said on Wednesday, decrying the "unimaginable" costs of the programme.

'No clear evidence' £22bn Test and Trace scheme works

‘No clear evidence’ £22bn Test and Trace scheme works

LONDON: There is “no clear evidence” the £22 billion Test and Trace scheme contributed to a reduction in coronavirus infection levels, a cross-party group of MPs have said.
Meg Hillier, the chair of the Commons Public Accounts Committee (PAC) behind a critical report, urged the government to justify the “staggering investment of taxpayers’ money”.
The MPs said ministers had justified the vast expenditure on preventing a second national lockdown, but noted England is currently living under its third in questioning the programme’s effectiveness. They also urged the scheme led by Tory peer Dido Harding to “wean itself off” reliance on thousands of “expensive” consultants and temporary staff, with some receiving £6,624 per day. The PAC said the programme does publish a significant amount of weekly data, including some that shows full compliance with the self-isolation rules relied upon by the scheme can be low. But it criticised the data for failing to show the speed of the process from “cough to contact” and therefore not allowing the public to judge the “overall effectiveness of the programme”.

LONDON (Reuters) - England’s $32 billion test and trace system has not made a significant impact on the COVID-19 pandemic and failed its key goals despite its “unimaginable” cost, a British parliamentary committee said on Wednesday.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson last year promised a world beating test and trace system as part of the route out of the pandemic.
But it has taken the successful development and deployment of vaccines to let the government plot a definitive route back to normality.
“Despite the unimaginable resources thrown at this project, test and trace cannot point to a measurable difference to the progress of the pandemic,” said Meg Hillier, chair of the British parliament’s Public Accounts Committee and an opposition Labour party lawmaker.
