The UK has recorded a further 91,743 new coronavirus cases and another 44 deaths within 28 days of a positive Covid test, government data shows, APA reports citing BBC.
The number of cases is higher than on Sunday - when 82,886 were recorded - but lower than the record 93,045 cases recorded on Friday.
There has been a sharp increase in Covid cases, driven by the new Omicron variant, with some calls for the government to go further than the Plan B measures currently in place.
So far, almost 90% of people aged 12 and over in the UK have had their first vaccine dose, nearly 82% have had their second and 50% have had a booster.
