LONDON, Sept 27 (Reuters) - An issue with England's COVID-19
smartphone app, launched to curb the spread of the virus, which
meant it could not accept around a third of test results has
been resolved, the government said on Sunday.
The app's official account had said on Saturday it could not
link to test results taken in Public Health England
laboratories, via the National Health Service or as part of a
survey run by the Office for National Statistics.
"Everyone who receives a positive test result can log their
result on the app," a health ministry spokesman said.
"A minority of people, such as hospital patients, who were
unable to log their positive result can now request a code when
contacted by NHS Test and Trace to input on their app."
