If you have symptoms, you and everyone in your household must self-isolate. This means you cannot leave your house at all, except for medical reasons. It’s essential you know when to self-isolate and how long for.
The symptoms of coronavirus are
- a high temperature
- a new, continuous cough
- a loss of, or change to, your sense of taste or smell
Data dashboard
Below is the latest coronavirus data for Middlesbrough. It shows the number of people who have had a positive coronavirus test.
The data is for both Pillar 1 testing (in PHE or NHS hospitals for those in clinical need, and those working in medical or care settings) and Pillar 2 testing (swab testing for the wider population).
The data for coronavirus-related deaths is reported by the ONS, and provided one week behind.
The figures are updated every day at 3pm, using data from Public Health England (PHE) and the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
Local Outbreak Plan
This plan is still in development. Further specifics and data will be added once they are available.
Governance
How we will work closely with public health experts, partners, local agencies, and the community to make key decisions, manage resources, and work effectively together to control any outbreaks in Middlesbrough.
Care Homes & Schools
How we will protect people and manage risks in our care homes and schools, our plans for monitoring and testing, and what we will do if there are any outbreaks in these higher-risk settings.
High Risk Locations
How we will protect people, and manage communities and locations which are considered high risk due to the number of vulnerable people, or where extra support is required to ensure safety measures are in place.
Test and Trace
How we will deliver Test and Trace to reduce the spread of the virus in Middlesbrough, including identifying and managing infections locally, and supporting contact tracing in high risk locations.
Data
How we will work with local, regional, and national Public Health teams to help identify and contain outbreaks, through combining quality and timely data with local information and knowledge of our communities.
Vulnerable People
How we will identify and support people who have higher health risks due to the virus, a higher risk of transmitting the virus, may be unable to access support, and/or are likely to experience other harms due to the virus.
