The UK is thought to be “over the peak” of the latest Covid-19 wave as infections have dropped for the first time in two months.
Powered by two new Omicron subvariants, BA.4 and BA.5, recent months were characterised by rising infection levels across the UK.
However according to data released today by the Office of National Statistics, the number of Brits with Covid has dropped by around 600,000 from this time last week.
