Britain has reported another 27,125 coronavirus cases in the latest 24-hour period, bringing the total number of coronavirus cases in the country to 4,855,169, according to official figures released on Friday.

The country also recorded another 27 coronavirus-related death. The total number of coronavirus-related deaths in Britain now stands at 128,189. These figures only include the deaths of people who died within 28 days of their first positive test, Xinhua reported.

England’s coronavirus reproduction number, also known as the R number, has fallen slightly to between 1.1 and 1.3, according to the latest estimate by the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (SAGE), a British government advisory body.

An R value between 1.1 and 1.3 means that, on average, every 10 people infected will infect between 11 and 13 other people.
