Covid: UK R rate rises despite lockdown measures

Covid: UK R rate rises despite lockdown measures The UK’s R rate has crept up slightly, despite Covid cases falling to their lowest level since September amid nationwide lockdown measures, according to the latest official figures. The rate of reproduction of coronavirus now stands at 0.7 to 0.9, meaning every 10 people infected will likely infect between 7 and 9 other people. The figure marks a slight increase from last week, when the R rate stood between 0.6 and 0.9. However, the reproduction rate crucially still remains below 1, meaning the virus is not growing exponentially. The Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage) estimates that the number of new infections is shrinking by between three and five per cent every day.
