80.1 per cent of the British population over the age of 16 have already received two doses of coronavirus

In Britain, more than 80 per cent have received two doses of the coronavirus vaccine. The total number of first and second doses of the two doses so far is approaching 92 million.

According to the latest details from the UK Department of Health, 482,92811 people have benefited from the first vaccination dose since the start of the vaccination campaign in the UK on 8 December last year.

Of these, 43535,098 have received the second dose, a total of 9,827,909 doses of the coronavirus vaccination in the UK so far.

It also means that 80.1 per cent of the British population over the age of 16 has already received two doses of the vaccine.

In Hungary, those over the age of 16 are approx. 67 percent were vaccinated.

Laboratory tests have so far revealed more than 7 million cases of coronavirus in the United Kingdom, and the epidemic has so far claimed the lives of 133,483 people in Britain.

According to a recent estimate from the Public Health Service (PHE), the UK’s vaccination program prevented nearly 106,000 deaths and more than 24 million infections, and prevented 143,600 cases of serious illness that required hospital care.

British epidemic

Britain’s Department of Health reported 37,489 new coronavirus infections across the country in the past day and 269,193 in the past week.

The weekly figure is 13.9 percent higher than the number of new infections identified through screening in the one-week period that ended last Tuesday.

According to the latest calculations from the British government’s Scientific Advisory Board on Standards (SAGE), the reproductive R in England has fallen slightly to between 0.9 and 1.1.

The primary significance of this is that the lower end of the estimate range has fallen below a critical level for the first time in months.

The new estimate shows that 10 infected people infect an average of 9-11 other people, which means that if the two extremes in the estimate range are correct, the rate of spread of the coronavirus epidemic in England will slow. .

According to SAGE’s calculation methodology, an R of 0.9 to 1.1 means the number of novel coronavirus infections in England could range from a decrease of 2 per cent to an increase of 2 per cent each day.

Within the UK average, the situation in London is the best: SAGE has measured an R-score of 0.8-1.1 over the past week. (MTI)
