The serious untoward incident (SUI) investigation has looked at the role of NHS Test and Trace (NHSTT) and UKHSA in:
- the procuring and awarding of the first and second contracts by the UK government with Immensa (in 2020 and 2021 respectively), their mobilisation and monitoring of Immensa’s activity
- NHSTT’s reviews into concerns that were raised relating to individuals who had positive lateral flow device (LFD) results followed by negative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) results in September and October 2021 and assessments of the potential public health impact associated with these concerns
