Has the Welsh Government or Public Health Wales requested modelling of the strategy of testing, contact tracing and isolation for Wales from the UK Government’s SAGE committee?

Answered by First Minister | Answered on 30/04/2020

SAGE papers and discussion are confidential; however the official SAGE webpage is updated on a regular basis with the most recent scientific evidence discussed at SAGE.

Wales has a national plan for testing, and is developing a public health response as part of the Framework to Lead Wales out of the Coronavirus Pandemic, which will include contact tracing. We will continue to collaborate with the UK Government and Devolved Administrations to share information and progress.
