Although the balance sheets published on Tuesday, when unrecorded deaths from the weekend are updated, are usually the highest in the week, the current state is up to 40 percent higher than the previous Tuesday and 82 percent higher than the death from two weeks ago. This means that this is clearly the worst day-to-day balance during the ongoing third wave of the epidemic in Great Britain. In the past seven days, 982 deaths from Covid-19 have been recorded, an increase of 7.8 percent. More than the previous seven.
On the other hand, the number of detected infections – 40,954 – reached almost 4.5 thousand. Higher on Monday, but at the same time about 3 thousand lower. Compared to last Tuesday. In addition, for the first time in several weeks, the total balance of newly discovered infections from the past 7 days amounted to 312.9 thousand. – It was lower than in the previous seven. Admittedly, this decrease is only 0.4%, but in recent weeks, measured week-to-week increases have been several percent.
The slowdown in the growth rate of new infections, which has appeared in recent days, has given rise to speculation in the media that perhaps the peak of infections in this wave has passed, and it may not be necessary to implement Plan B, that is, restore some of them. restrictions. In recent days, both Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Health Minister Sajid Javid have argued that the increase in infections is in line with expectations and that the situation does not justify a return to restrictions.
Since the start of the pandemic, 8.85 million cases of coronavirus have been reported in the UK, with 139,834 deaths. The country ranks fourth globally in terms of the number of detected infections, and eighth in terms of deaths.
