Thank you for your request.
In the dataset accompanying out latest bulletin, you can find percentage and Cycle threshold (Ct) values of COVID-19 cases for
- The UK as well as separately for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland on tab 6a
- Regions of England on tab 6b
One of our recent ad hoc publication on Ct analysis published 21 December 2020, which can be found here, includes further breakdowns by evidence of symptoms and age. This information is provided for each week during the period 30 September to 09 December 2020.
Additionally, our academic research partners have released a paper that explore Ct values as a proxy for SARS-CoV-2 viral load in further detail.
This paper can be found as a pre-print release here.
