Original Note:
According to Full Fact only part of the budget was ever used and of that only £35 million was spent on the NHS COVID-19 app with the remainder being spent on test kits, labs, etc. Research by the University of Oxford found the app saved 10,000 lives in its first year. https://fullfact.org/health/NHS-test-and-trace-app-37-billion-instagram/ https://www.ox.ac.uk/news/2023-02-22-nhs-covid-19-app-saved-estimated-10000-lives-its-first-year-research-finds
