Hertfordshire County Council, in partnership with Broxbourne Borough Council, is launching a free pilot scheme to keep local residents safe and retail and hospitality businesses to reopen.
Hertfordshire County Council has taken over responsibility for identifying contacts of people who have tested positive for coronavirus. The local authority, rather than NHS Track and Trace, is now responsible for contact tracing in the county and has teams that will get in touch with anyone who tests positive. The new approach should mean that people who have tested positive will be contacted faster than before because the process can begin as soon as the case is put on to the NHS Test and Trace system. The teams will ensure that those who tested positive and any other members of their household that need to can self-isolate successfully.
