Dr. Claire Steves, Reader at King's College London, analyses the latest data from the ZOE COVID Study, which shows cases are at an all-time high in the UK. While cases appear to be moving into older age groups at higher risk of hospitalisation, our data also shows the rapid rises of the last few weeks are slowing down and cases are even dropping in London where COVID prevalence is highest.
