Other NHS and ONS tests to be able to be recorded #9

Closed cathrynsymons closed 3 years ago

cathrynsymons commented 3 years ago

Please consider making it possible to record other tests, such as those given in hospitals and through the ONS survey. That would allow better detection of contacts.

This has also been reported on the iOS app here >> https://github.com/nhsx/covid-19-app-ios-ag-public/issues/7

Though it may need to be reported on the shared/backend project instead of these two, can somebody confirm?

According to https://www.itv.com/news/2020-09-26/nhs-covid-19-contact-tracing-app-officials-working-to-fix-issue-of-processing-coronavirus-test-results this is fixed.

ataraxia89 commented 3 years ago

This has been fixed and has now been reported via numerous sources. Contact tracers are now issuing codes that can be entered into the app after receiving the test results.

@cathrynsymons please can you close this issue?

cathrynsymons commented 3 years ago

Thank you, that was very quick. And well done.

bdsl commented 3 years ago

@cathrynsymons Maybe. I might have been a bit hasty passing on the message from ITV that this is fixed. Dr Michael Veale was not convinced by it.

ataraxia89 commented 3 years ago

@bdsl nobody seems to be paying any attention to these GitHub issues anyway, I've almost given up.
