COVID-19 health intelligence services
ESR is currently providing national and international health intelligence to the Ministry and the wider health sector about the global pandemic of COVID-19.
ESR maintains the end-to-end system for testing, validating, analysing and reporting on COVID-19, and we are stewards of national public health data on current cases. We have been conducting research across several disciplines – from genome sequencing, wastewater testing, and environmental swabbing, to COVID-19 testing.
The latest COVID-19 heath advice can be found on the Ministry of Health webpage.(external link)
