Coronavirus: Five things a Covid-19 symptom-tracking app tells us
The UK's scientists have been trying to trace Covid-19's path through the population ever since the coronavirus arrived on British shores.
Not to be confused with the government's contact-tracing app, the Covid-19 Symptom Study app allows users to report daily whether they feel healthy, and record any symptoms. The peak of the epidemic came nine days later, the researchers believe, on 1 April. They estimate more than two million people aged 20-69 had Covid-19 symptoms in the UK at this point - or 50 in every 1,000 people. The researchers found their app recorded a peak in infections around two weeks before the peak in hospital admissions, which Prof Spector says shows it is an"early warning device" for future changes in levels of the disease.
