Newsnodes	13 Aug 2020, 19:53 Today no updates on the dashboard in the UK: "We have not received the latest data for cases and tests in England. We will update today's records as soon as they become available. The deaths page is being re–developed."
Newsnodes	11 Aug 2020, 20:19 No updates today on the COVID-19 dashboard of the United Kingdom "due to technical difficulties", but UK did update the total number of confirmed cases here: www.gov.uk No update on the total number of deaths or tests though.
Newsnodes	23 Jul 2020, 14:11 UK has released historic numbers for "tests processed", so now we have deleted all our previous testing data and replaced it with these numbers. Note: for fair comparison we have manually only included Pillar 1 and Pillar 2 testing, so there's no antibody tests or serological research in the UK testing data on Newsnodes.
Newsnodes	6 Jul 2020, 11:40 With recent revelations, UK reporting on testing numbers has become highly unreliable as they have actually performed 25% less tests than they claimed they did (8 mln done, instead of 10.5 mln done) and these also included antibody testing. For fair comparison, we have temporarily taken down the testing numbers by UK.
Newsnodes	3 Jul 2020, 15:53 For the record: UK revised their total number of positive cases down by 30302 cases! Explanation quote: "The methodology for reporting positive cases changed on 2 July 2020 to remove duplicates within and across pillars 1 and 2, to ensure that a person who tests positive is only counted once. Due to this change, and a revision of historical data in pillar 1, the cumulative total for positive cases is 30,302 lower than if you added the daily figure to yesterday’s total."
Newsnodes	14 Jun 2020, 11:00 After waiting for almost 4 weeks for UK to resume reporting people tested data, we don't see a reason to continue waiting. We have just reverted all testing data for the UK starting April 7, to reflect "samples tested" (instead of "people tested"). With this alternative testing data, we can again share UK testing activity on this page!
Newsnodes	23 May 2020, 21:16 Once again the British government is having "technical difficulties with data collection" and that's why they don't provide the numbers of "persons tested" today.
Newsnodes	19 May 2020, 19:13 The British government is not providing the needed testing data today, due to a "technical issue with data collection systems".
Newsnodes	25 Apr 2020, 16:28 Just now UK did a revision of their test data. They wrote: " The difference between the cumulative numbers from today and yesterday for tests is 1 higher than the daily increase figure. This is due to a revision of historic test data by PHE. The difference between the cumulative numbers from today and yesterday for people tested is 50,499 higher than the daily increase figure", all 50499 tests negative.
Newsnodes	12 Apr 2020, 21:22 Test data has now been added for UK!
Newsnodes	10 Apr 2020, 20:31 Today's UK numbers are much higher due to a recalculation. Up till April 10th, UK was not reporting on key workers and their households. These numbers are now included by the UK government
