The overall Covid-19 hospital admission rate for the most recent week was 1.97 per 100,000 population, an increase from 1.17 per 100,000 in the previous report. "The NHS will be in contact in autumn 2023 when the seasonal vaccine is available for those who are eligible due to health conditions or age, and we urge everyone who is offered to take up the vaccine when offered."
He said: "Poor weather over the last month has meant more indoor mixing including during various events such as university degree congregations and increased cinema attendance."
