The sharp increase in cases in London and the south of England has helped push the all important R number above one.
NHS chiefs are getting increasingly concerned about the strain on hospitals with almost 90 percent of England's beds already full.

A further 489 deaths have sadly been reported, that takes the total to 66,541.
