A further 48,553 cases of Covid-19 were confirmed across the UK today, as case numbers continue to rise ahead of the lifting of most restrictions in England this Monday.

A further 63 people had died within 28 days of testing positive for Covid-19 as of today, the highest day-on-day rise since March 26.

It brings the UK total to 128,593. Two regions of England are recording their highest rate of new Covid-19 cases since comparable figures began in summer 2020, when mass testing was first introduced across the UK.

The North East recorded 835.8 cases per 100,000 people in the week to July 11, while Yorkshire and the Humber recorded 462.7 per 100,000, according to the latest Covid-19 surveillance report from Public Health England.
