Depends on when consent was asked for: it seems that the NHS app has been updated to include details such as mental health history, lifestyle, ethnic origin, biometric data, history of criminal behavior (plus alleged criminal behavior!). Wasn't the NHS app something people were asked to download to book appointments and show your covid-19 vaccination history? Did the privacy notice when it was being downloaded really tell the user that this was also what the app would do?

Situation creep imo...

I think you mean the Covid app.
That is separate from the NHS app.
If I get chance I'll go and the privacy statement in the app, but I bet it's all encompassing.
You can, of course, ask for any processing to be stopped If it's going to a third party. However I expect we'll see more more "NHS companies" pop up

I wonder why they would aggregate data across Pfizer and Astra Zeneca? None of us have had aggregated vaccines. Can’t see the breakdown in the article or links.
Is one significantly more effective than the other?

There doesn’t appear to be much difference in the level of protection offered by Pfizer and AstraZeneca vaccines, other than the mRNA version seems to stimulate antibody production a few days quicker, so I assume they’ll both be similarly effective against this variant too.

rising optimism yet the Govt has backdoor'd an annoucement to not meet indoors in 8 areas of the country but didn't formally announce it so they can save face.

fudging shambles. How people keep voting for this lot i'll never understand.

An England cricket Test match and horse racing's Royal Ascot are expected to be among the next pilot events to test the return of big crowds to sports venues.

The second Test of the men's series against New Zealand, beginning on 10 June at Edgbaston, is set to have more than 15,000 fans.

And Royal Ascot, which runs from 15-19 June, will be permitted to host about 10,000 spectators each day.

That is more than double what the race meeting had been expecting.

England's first two group games in Euro 2020 will also be part of the next stage of the pilot project, as has already been reported, with 20,000 fans permitted at Wembley.

Current government guidance is that up to 10,000 spectators, but no more than 25% of capacity, are allowed in stadiums while for non-seated outdoor venues like racecourses there is a current cap of 4,000.

Edgbaston has a capacity of 25,000 while Ascot can hold up to 70,000 people.

Fans have been allowed back in stadiums in reduced numbers since the latest phase of lockdown easing on 17 May.

In the Premier League, clubs were allowed up to 10,000 supporters inside grounds for the last two rounds of matches.

The previous round of pilot events for larger crowds has been considered a success by government, with 15 positive Covid cases recorded from a range of events that involved more than 58,000 people in April and May.

There were around 20,000 fans at the FA Cup final at Wembley and the World Snooker Championship final was the first sporting event for more than a year to have a capacity crowd on 3 May.
