The NHS Test and Trace service is failing to reach 30% of people who test positive for COVID-19 in England.
A contact tracer told Sky News that there are no translation services available – despite the government’s claims – which makes it hard to reach people for whom English is not a first language.
Statistics from the government show that the number of people successfully contacted has dropped since last week.
