PRAGUE, Feb 5 (Reuters) - The UK coronavirus variant, more infectious than the previously dominant strain, has taken over as the main cause of new COVID-19 cases in Slovakia, Prime Minister Igor Matovic said on Friday. The central European country of 5.5 million has struggled to bring down daily cases despite lockdown measures and widespread testing, which is required for people to go out including to work.
Hospitals have been strained with 3,560 coronavirus patients on Thursday.
Matovic said the government had checked all positive samples of PCR laboratory tests taken in the country on Wednesday and preliminary results showed 71% were the UK variant.
