Office for National Statistics data also points to drop in infection levels in Wales and Scotland
Coronavirus infection levels have fallen in England, figures have revealed, reflecting a recent decline in cases while questions have emerged over levels of the virus in vaccinated people.
According to figures from the Office for National Statistics, based on swabs collected from randomly selected households, an estimated one in 75 people in England had Covid in the week ending 31 July, down from one in 65 the week before. The survey suggests infection levels have also fallen in Wales and Scotland, although Northern Ireland has seen a rise.
