Test
Tests told people whether they had Covid-19 or not. There were testing centres and home testing kits.
Trace
People with Covid-19 were asked who they had been close to recently.
NHS Test and Trace staff told these people that they were at risk of getting Covid-19.
Isolate
People had to stay at home, to avoid spreading the virus.

Information
Many people said they understood how to Test Trace and Isolate at the start of the pandemic.
But then the rules kept changing. This was confusing. People became unsure about what to do.
Some people found it harder than others. For example: people whose first language is not English, and people who do not use the internet.
Many people didn’t know about the support they could get when they were self-isolating.
Things that helped
Here are some things that helped people to Test, Trace and Isolate:
- feeling they were protecting people they care about
- having to test as part of their job
- getting help from family, friends and community groups
- wanting to go back to “normal life” as soon as possible
- it made them worry less
- it was easy to get free tests
What stopped people testing and isolating?
- not trusting the test and trace process
- politicians broke the rules
- booking tests was too complicated
- it was hard to learn to use the tests
- tests felt very uncomfortable
- loss of freedom when self-isolating
- no support from family or friends
Fines
Some people were given fixed penalty notices if they broke the rules.
This meant they had to pay money called a fine.
- some people told us that fines made them want to follow the rules
- some people thought the fines should have been bigger
- some people thought the fines made no difference
- immigrants worried that a fine might affect their application to live in this country
Experiences of groups of people
- Parents
Some people told us that testing children was difficult, especially if they had autism, ADHD or other needs.
Testing very young children could also be very distressing.
Self-isolating with young children was very hard.
- Those who helped older people
People with arthritis or shaky hands needed help with doing the tests.
Tests could have been designed to be easier for these people.
Testing people with dementia was very hard. Sometimes they did not understand what the test was for.
- Deaf and disabled people
Some of the testing centres were not accessible.
Test kit instructions were not accessible for everyone.
Some testing centres had helpful staff and Easy Read information.
Deaf or disabled people were affected when community organisations closed.
- 家庭暴力受害者
Some people felt pressured by their partner to either follow or not follow the rules.
- People who find reading difficult
People needed help to understand how to use the test kits, and how to book tests online.
People felt confused and anxious about using the tracing apps.
- People who lost loved ones
Self-isolating was very hard when people had a friend or relative who was dying in hospital.
When a loved-one died, people could not meet with friends and family for support. This was extremely hard.
Ideas for the future
Make rules clear. Don’t change them. Help people to understand why the rules are needed.
Make rules the same in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Community leaders can help with telling local people about rules and restrictions.
Offer more support. For example, for:
- mental health
- money
- people who don’t use computers
- people who live in rural areas
