A total of 472 patients with confirmed coronavirus were admitted to hospitals in England on Monday, compared with 308 a week earlier.
The figures for hospital admissions and patients on ventilators in England are the highest since June, and case numbers have continued to rise. A fortnight ago, there were 4,926 cases recorded on 22 September. Boris Johnson is facing fresh pressure to consider a tighter national lockdown as the country continues to grapple with COVID-19.
At Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesday, Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said 19 of the 20 areas subjected to local measures for two months had seen infection rates increase.Mr Johnson hinted that tougher measures could be needed in London and the Midlands. "I wish I could pretend that everything was going to be rosy in the Midlands or indeed in London where, alas, we are also seeing infections rise," he said, before calling for a"concerted national effort".
