UK Health Security Agency to have strengthened sequencing and surveillance capabilities
The government’s priorities for UKHSA were set out in the agency’s first remit letter.
UKHSA’s top priority is taking forward the fight against coronavirus (COVID-19) and ensuring that we are prepared against other future external health threats.
In order to deliver this, the government has confirmed that, to support part of its remit, the agency will have increased genomic sequencing and surveillance capabilities.
UKHSA will plan for the next phases of the pandemic, ensuring COVID-19 related activities are operating effectively to manage the transmission and impact of the virus. The agency will also help support wider key lessons learned from the pandemic to keep our nation safe, both now and in the future.
