The UK's death toll from Covid-19 has risen by 684 to 3,605, up 23% in a day

A total of 173,784 people have been tested, of which 38,168 were positive.

"The modelling suggests that that peak will be slightly sooner than previous, in the next few weeks but it is very, very sensitive to how many people follow the social distancing guidelines," Matt Hancock told the BBC.He finished his self-isolation yesterday after testing positive for Covid-19 last week."For me it was short-lived and I was able to come back to work yesterday and I'm in full health.

He said that around 1,500 frontline healthcare staff are being tested daily since centres opened at the weekend but that number is "ramping up fast". "But I don't want to make a commitment that I can't meet and that's why when I was asked about it yesterday I said by the end of the month." A close friend of the 36-year-old mother-of-three, who worked at Walsall Manor Hospital, paid tribute to her on social media and confirmed she had died.

RIP

May cancel that holiday to Bognor Regis so

% wise Ireland has had more deaths than UK given Ireland has a population of less than 5 million and 98 deaths. UK has a population of 67 million

UK are two weeks and one day behind Italy....Effect of UK lockdown should start bending the curve soon....

Time to ask Leo what he discussed with Johnson, the cull of the population would be my guess.😨😱😭🤮😠😠😠

Should Ireland implement travel restrictions to the UK? They now have a 9.5% death rate vs cases and are nowhere near peaking. This is a higher death rate than Spain at 9.3%

They are in for the worst statistics we are going to hear. Big trouble.

Rip 🙏 That's horrendous

Herd immunity...
