(ANSA) - LONDON, OCTOBER 20 - The day-to-day counters from Covid in the United Kingdom are close to 50,000 (over 40,000 for the eighth day in a row), now reaching 49,139, just twenty less than the number recorded two days ago, a record since mid-July .
Still below the warning level, however, but slightly increased to almost 7,900, the total hospital admissions: apparently held back by vaccines, administered in double doses to about 80% of the population.
While the deaths, weighed down on Tuesdays and Wednesdays by the usual statistical recovery relating to the weekend, decrease compared to 223 yesterday, peak since March, but remain 179. (ANSA).
