Coronavirus news: Violent clashes at anti-lockdown rally as ministers under fire over ‘extraordinary’ NHS app flaw
Ministers are under pressure to explain why the new NHS Covid-19 app for England was launched without the ability to handle test resultss from NHS labs.
The flaw left the app unable to process some 60,000 positive finding - including those carried out in hospitals - until a fix was announced late on Saturday, two days after the launch of the long-awaited tracing system.
Meanwhile, protesters at an anti-lockdown rally in London were involved in violent clashes with police as officers tried to disperse the crowd after warning that social distancing restrictions were not being observed. Sixteen people were arrested and nine police officers were injured.
