The British health authorities announced on Sunday that 37,681 cases of SARS-CoV-2 had been confirmed in the previous 24 hours and 51 patients had died due to complications of COVID-19.

The new coronavirus pandemic has claimed the lives of 144,775 people out of a total of 10,146,915 infections in the UK. The death toll includes only those who died 28 days after being diagnosed with the virus.

88% of citizens over the age of 12 have received the first dose of COVID-19 vaccine and over 80% have been fully vaccinated. The administration of booster doses, which exceeded 30% of the target population, continues.

Amid growing international concern over the Omicron variant of the new coronavirus, which is spreading, the Boris Johnson government announced new measures yesterday, which will take effect tomorrow, Tuesday. From now on, the use of a mask will be mandatory in shops and means of transport, while in schools, some students will also have to wear a mask when they are in public areas. From 30 November, all travelers returning to the UK will be required to undergo a PCR test, regardless of whether they have been vaccinated or not.
