Coronavirus has gained momentum again. Corona is at its peak in Scotland and Wales, while Covid cases in England are close to record levels. According to official figures, around 4.2 million people were infected in the UK last week. At the same time, a record 2,96,498 new corona cases were registered in Germany a day earlier.
The Office for National Statistics (ONS) reported that the rise in cases is due to Omicron's sub-variant BA.2 called 'Stealth Omicron'. In England, by 19 March, one in 16 people was likely to have corona, but even for the third week, these cases continued to increase.
Around 4.26 million people were infected last week across the UK, down from the 4.3 million positive cases detected in the first week of January 2022. Despite the number of infections, Omicron's mild symptoms following New Year's celebrations resulted in far fewer deaths than in previous waves.
Patients increasing in hospitals in England
The number of people hospitalized in England and Wales is also increasing. However, the number of people in the High Dependency Unit is still small. Hospitals in Scotland are currently treating 2,326 patients, a new record. So far 164,454 people have died from Corona in Britain.
