Free testing will continue during April in Scotland and Northern Ireland, and until the summer in Wales.

The cumulative rate of infection in Mid Ulster, which covers the whole pandemic, stands at 37,040 cases per 100,000 people, higher than the Northern Ireland average of 36,300.

In England, Scotland and Northern Ireland, if one person tests positive for the virus more than 90 days after the first infection, two infection episodes will be recorded, according to the UK Health Security Agency.
