The U.K. reported 10,633 new coronavirus cases and five more deaths, according to official daily figures released on Monday.
The U.K. is on track to lift all COVID-19 lockdown restrictions on July 19 as the data on deaths and hospitalisation from coronavirus looks “encouraging”, the UK’s Health Minister Matt Hancock said on Tuesday. “We are on track for the opening on July 19 and we will watch vigilantly, we will look at the data in particular at the start of next week,” Mr. Hancock told the BBC. “The data over the last week or so has been encouraging, especially looking at the number of people who are dying — that is staying very, very low,” he said.More Related News
