Infection levels in England are showing a “shallow decline” under lockdown, scientists have said, but are not decreasing fast enough – London had the highest proportion of people testing positive at 2.38% — or one in 35 people

London was among those with a decline in infection levels, according to the latest edition of Imperial College London’s REACT study published on 28 January. Infections in the capital went up to 4% in younger age groups, including 13 to 17-year-olds and 18 to 24-year-olds.
