Picking up locally a lot of difficulty with people being able to get their flu jab at the moment- there have been issues with availability for a while but in the last few days seems to have got worse. What are other peoples experiences? — PolitiTweet.org

So even if Gov proclaim success at hitting 500k tests tomorrow, remember- Its a theoretical capacity Its not people The actual number of tests processed is much lower And if results take too long to come back its nowhere near as effective as it should be(8/8) — PolitiTweet.org

Justin Madders MP @justinmadders

The Gov webpage tells us that 2,082,458 tests were done in that period so listen out for Ministers conflating tests done with people tested as they are not the same. But looking at the Gov figures for tests "processed" in the last week they average 311k, well short of 500k.(7/8) — PolitiTweet.org

Justin Madders MP @justinmadders

As a result of this daily figures for the number of people tested have never been disclosed- we now have the weekly figures from test & trace which tell us for example that in the week 15-21st Oct 1,519,977 people were tested or 217,139 people a day. (6/8) — PolitiTweet.org

Justin Madders MP @justinmadders

In terms of the number of tests actually being done, note that this is NOT people tested despite the original pledge to have 100k people tested a day by the end of April. This morphed into 100k tests as people were having multiple tests which were all being counted (5/8) — PolitiTweet.org

Justin Madders MP @justinmadders

Test,trace and isolate can only be effective if test results are back quickly which is why Boris Johnson made that promise which shows no sign of being met. Capacity is meaningless if results take days (or weeks) to process. (4/8) — PolitiTweet.org

Justin Madders MP @justinmadders

The turnaround time for tests is critical which is why the PM promised that all test results would be returned within 24 hours by the end of June. At the moment,22% of test results are back within 24 hours from mobile testing centres and its 3.5% for postal tests. (3/8) — PolitiTweet.org

Justin Madders MP @justinmadders

..testing capacity is theoretical. The Govt webpage says "Testing capacity is a projection based on reports from labs on how many lab-based tests they have capacity to carry out each day based on availability of staff and resources." So its a projection,not what is happening(2/8) — PolitiTweet.org

Justin Madders MP @justinmadders

A thread on testing capacity-the Government have long said they intend to have testing capacity up to 500k a day by 31st Oct-capacity has been increasing rapidly in recent weeks from 248k a day at start of Sept to 310k at start of Oct to 467k on 28th (up 98k in 5 days).But..(1/8) — PolitiTweet.org

When the very clear advice at the time the tiers were created that tier 3 would not be enough it is hardly a surprise that new tiers would be needed. What is surprise is that it has taken the Government so long to accept that. https://t.co/sju4E1qhKz — PolitiTweet.org

Got an email this evening from Lord Bethell telling me a new testing centre is “coming soon” to Ellesmere Port. It’s been here all week 🤦 https://t.co/FhoQ9tQuJY — PolitiTweet.org

@Malietta1 I don’t think so- postcode data for individuals is very important in that respect though — PolitiTweet.org

And it’s still run by Serco (the bits where it isn’t performing at least) — PolitiTweet.org

Test and trace- still not reaching 40% of people still not reaching enough contacts still not returning enough results in 24hours still not world beating still not even adequate https://t.co/xTMQMjaGbn — PolitiTweet.org
