Details

The wider impacts of COVID-19 on health (WICH) monitoring tool collates metrics across a range of wider impacts to provide stakeholders with a single point of access. This will enable stakeholders to:

  • monitor changes over time or against an agreed point in time
  • make timely, informed decisions
  • intervene early to mitigate against poor outcomes
  • understand the wider context on population health

The WICH tool was first published on 16 July 2020. Since then, we have continually developed the tool to include additional metrics and make it easier to use.

On 1 October 2021, Public Health England (PHE) closed and responsibility for the WICH tool transferred to the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID).

On 5 November 2020, PHE published an in-depth commentary and associated tables on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on grocery shopping behaviours during the period March to June 2020.

Updates to the WICH monitoring tool are paused pending the results of a review of the content and presentation of data within the tool. The tool has not been updated since the 16 March 2023.

Please send any questions or comments to PHA-OHID@dhsc.gov.uk
