One lakh 6 thousand 122 new cases of corona virus were added in UK on Wednesday. At the same time,the number of daily corona infections has exceeded one million for the first time since the onset of the epidemic.
The number of infected people has been steadily rising in the UK since the onset of the highly contagious omicron variant. However, the number of hospital admissions and deaths seems to be stable. As many as 140 people were infected with the virus on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, preliminary studies in Scotland and South Africa show that omicron symptoms are more common than other variants of the Covid-19. Similarly, a separate analysis by Imperial College London shows that omicron symptoms are more common than delta due to mutations.
