About 1 in 13 people are estimated to have been infected with Covid in the past week in the U.K., according to the latest figures from Britain’s official statistics agency.
Hospitalizations and death rates are again rising, although the number of people dying with Covid-19 is still relatively low compared with earlier this year. Nonetheless, the latest estimates suggest that the steep climb in new infections since late February, when British Prime Minister Boris Johnson scrapped all remaining coronavirus restrictions in England, has continued well into March.
“The government’s ‘living with Covid’ strategy of removing any mitigations, isolation, free testing and a considerable slice of our surveillance amounts to nothing more than ignoring this virus going forwards,” said Stephen Griffin, associate professor at the University of Leeds’ medical school.
