Covid infection levels in the UK have risen by more than 30% in a week, with an estimated 2.3 million people thought to have had the disease in late June.

 

Figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) based on swabs collected from randomly selected households show that in the week ending 25 June, 1,829,100 people in the community in England are estimated to have had Covid, equating to about one in 30 and up from 1,360,600 the week before.

...

Hospitalisations involving Covid are also rising. On 30 June, there were 8,928 patients with Covid in hospital in England, up from 6,401 on the previous Thursday. Data released by the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) on Thursday showed ICU admission rates for Covid had increased slightly, and were highest in London and in the 75-84 age group.
