It comes as contact tracing app developers say over 60,000 tests carried out in England on Friday cannot be linked to its systems.

It comes a day after 6,874 were reported, which was the highest single-day figure so far in the pandemic.

... Seventeen million people - more than a quarter of the UK population - will be living under extra coronavirus restrictions when new measures on socialising come into force in parts of the country.

... Meanwhile, the developers of the new NHS coronavirus tracing app have admitted more than 60,000 tests carried out in England on Friday - just under a third of the total - cannot be linked to its systems.

The admission appears to undermine the central role of the software, which is to warn people when they have come into contact with anyone who subsequently tests positive.

A problem that prevented tens of thousands of people from logging the result of their coronavirus tests on the new NHS contact-tracing app has been fixed, according to a Department of Health spokesman.

In a statement, they said: "Everyone who receives a positive test result can log their result on the app.
"A minority of people, such as hospital patients, who were unable to log their positive result can now request a code when contacted by NHS Test and Trace to input on their app."

It came after the app's developers admitted it had not been able to link more than 60,000 coronavirus tests carried out in England on Friday - just under a third of the total - to its systems.
