Coronavirus has hit the UK hard, with the country recording hundreds of thousands of cases and over 67,000 deaths linked to the disease. England faced Europe’s highest excess death levels during the first wave of the pandemic.
The government figures below include confirmed cases only — some people who have the disease are not tested.
Where are the UK’s current coronavirus hotspots?
At the start of the pandemic, London bore the brunt of coronavirus’s impact. Since then, however, the centre of the virus shifted northwards and to areas in Northern Ireland before rising again in London and the south east.
Everyday life in the UK has been subject to varying degrees of restriction since March, and various lockdowns currently apply in England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. These regulations are set by the legislative body in each nation so there are local differences. There may also be extra measures in place at local authority level.
Details of the English lockdowns are listed here, Scottish lockdowns here, Welsh here and Northern Irish here. You can also search for your local area below.
