A catalogue of the scientific evidence considered by SPI-B in providing expert advice to government on COVID-19. The list includes academic publications, national and international public surveys and polls.
This background paper was produced by SPI-B participants to aid the early discussions and understanding of SAGE.
This evidence was often compiled very rapidly during a fast-moving response and should be viewed in this context. The paper presented here is the best assessment of the evidence at the time of writing, and the conclusions were formed on this basis. As new evidence or data emerges, SAGE updates its advice accordingly. Therefore, some of the information in this paper may have been superseded at a later date.
