Description:
Second Generation Surveillance System (SGSS) is the national laboratory reporting system used in England to capture routine laboratory data on infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistance. The SARS-CoV-2 testing started in UK laboratories on 24/02/2020, with the SGSS data reflecting testing (swab samples, PCR test method) offered to those in hospital and NHS key workers (i.e. Pillar 1). The CPRD-SGSS linked data currently contain positive tests results only.
