Irony indeed

The COVID Diaries – 112 19th July

Just as evidence is emerging that the NHS track and test regime is not contacting nearly enough people to be effective, it appears that ironically health officials are investigating a potential cluster of Covid-19 cases linked to a Scottish call centre that carries out contact tracing for the NHS.

NHS Lanarkshire and the Scottish government have both said that they are aware of a number of “potentially linked” cases in the council area. Neither of the bodies would confirm whether the suspected cluster had taken place at a contact-tracing call centre.
