Here, we established the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak response on gastrointestinal (GI) infection trends using routinely collected surveillance data from six national English laboratory, outbreak, and syndromic surveillance systems using key dates of governmental policy to assign phases for comparison between pandemic and historic data. Following decreases across all indicators during the first lockdown (March\u2013May 2020), bacterial and parasitic pathogens associated with foodborne or environmental transmission routes recovered rapidly between June and September 2020, while those associated with travel and\/or person-to-person transmission remained lower than expected for 2021. High out-of-season norovirus activity was observed with the easing of lockdown measures between June and October 2021, with this trend reflected in laboratory and outbreak systems and syndromic surveillance indicators. Above expected increases in emergency department (ED) attendances may have reflected changes in health-seeking behaviour and provision. Differential reductions across specific GI pathogens are indicative of the underlying routes of transmission. These results provide further insight into the drivers for transmission, which can help inform control measures for GI infections.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s095026882300136x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,25]],"date-time":"2023-08-25T09:21:49Z","timestamp":1692955309000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Understanding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic response on GI infection surveillance trends in England, January 2020\u2013April 2022"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"151","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3750-7158","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nicola K.","family":"Love","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amy","family":"Douglas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Saheer","family":"Gharbia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Helen","family":"Hughes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8543-477X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Roger","family":"Morbey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Isabel","family":"Oliver","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4257-0568","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gillian E.","family":"Smith","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6414-3065","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alex J.","family":"Elliot","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"S095026882300136X_r22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3201\/eid2803.212117"},{"key":"S095026882300136X_r3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjopen-2021-050469"},{"key":"S095026882300136X_r1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/9780470755129"},{"key":"S095026882300136X_r28","unstructured":"[28] Fancourt, D , Bu, F , Mak Wan, H and Steptoe, A (2020) Covid-19 Social Study: Results Release 17.
