I don't know the answer to your question but I suspect its something along the lines of that greentricky has said.
What I do know is that the internet is full of people saying that the NOIDs report is proof that the pandemic is a hoax despite the fact the data doesn't explain how and where it is gathered or what it covers.
EDIT: The report does actually explain what goes into it. As above, its a list of diagnosed notable diseases in primary care. Given that you are not generally permitted to visit a GP if you have suspected Covid, these figures make sense to me. If you have covid symptoms you are sent to a test center or have a test sent to you or go to hospital if things turn bad. There is little scope for a GP visit.
PHE publishes reports on the numbers of laboratory notifications
received.PHE’s Information Management section collates the returns of
registered medical practitioner (RMP) notifications and laboratory
causative agents nationally and publishes analyses of local and
national trends weekly.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist nut job and I've searched through the thread, I'm hoping someone can explain to me, so I can explain to someone else, why the Public Health England - Statutory Notifications Of Infectious Diseases has Covid at 50 cases this week for England and Wales (page 14) which is below TB at 63 and Mumps at 51?
