On Thursday, the United Kingdom recorded more than 50,000 new cases of Covid-19, for the first time since July, but the government again rejected calls to re-impose restrictions to contain the pandemic.
According to the latest statistics, the United Kingdom recorded 52 thousand and nine new injuries, which is the highest toll since July 17.
79% of the UK population aged 12 and over received two doses of the vaccine, and hospital admissions are relatively few.
The authorities are urging those who have not received the vaccine to do so, as well as the population of 50 years and over and those who suffer from health problems to receive the third dose of the booster immunization against Covid-19 and to receive the influenza vaccine.
And on Wednesday, British Health Minister Sajid Javid downplayed the importance of fears of the high number of injuries, stressing that there is no need to re-impose the placement of masks in closed places at the present time.
"Injuries are increasing," Javid told a news conference.
It can increase to 100,000 per day.
The pandemic is not over.”
"We are looking closely at the data, but we will not resort to our plan B for contingency measures at this stage," he added.
