‘The UK is at the peak of the coronavirus outbreak’ Health Secretary Matt Hancock has told MPs – on the same day the number of UK hospital deaths rose above 18,000.
Delivering an update on the government’s COVID-19 response in the House of Commons on Wednesday, Mr Hancock thanked the British public for their “steadfast commitment” in following lockdown rules.
But the health secretary added that social distancing measures would not be relaxed or changed until the government’s five tests for exiting the lockdown are reached.
