The number of new confirmed cases in the UK each day, where the mutant COVID-19 virus is spreading, has exceeded 53,000, the highest since the pandemic.

France decided to initiate a curfew in some areas two hours before 8:00 pm and to enforce it beginning at 6:00 pm as the spread of Corona 19 rarely abated.

On the 29th day local time, the number of new confirmed Corona 19 cases in the UK per day registered 53,135.

It is the largest since the March pandemic and has increased by more than 10,000 since the previous day.

The number of new deaths has also exceeded 400.

This is due to the appearance of a highly contagious mutant virus.

The biggest problem is that the UK healthcare system has reached its limits.

Although the number of requests for emergency vehicles for hospitalization has increased significantly, transportation is not possible due to a lack of emergency personnel or hospitals are moving because there are no empty rooms after taking patients.

British medical staff are concerned that more COVID-19 patients will be herded into hospitals the week after the Christmas holidays, the following week.

France has also decided to advance the curfew start time in some areas by two hours from 8:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.

It was aimed at less than 5,000 confirmed cases per day, but is a measure for the occurrence of more than 10,000 people in a month.

In France, on the 29th local time, there were 1,300 new cases per day and 384 deaths.
