Official statistics may not reveal the true number of daily cases as testing is dramatically reduced.
Testing for the virus has reduced dramatically, meaning official statistics are not revealing the true extent of the problem.But according to the Office of National Statistics that figure is actually between 15,000 and 20,000.According to the latest modelling paper published by the Department of Health, "hospital admissions are fluctuating at a relatively high level" although "the total numbers of Covid-19 inpatients have fallen slightly in the last week".
So community transmission remains at a sustained and "very high level" and has been like this for five months.
