With London in the background, sparse small groups of people roam across Greenwich Park on Saturday, as the UK continues in lockdown to help curb the spread of the coronavirus.
LONDON — Britain’s Department of Health says a total of 28,131 people have died in hospitals, care homes and the wider community after testing positive for the new coronavirus in the United Kingdom, an increase of 621 from the previous tally.
The figures include deaths as of 5 p.m. on Friday.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Thursday told the nation that Britain had passed its peak in the covid-19 outbreak and said he has plans to reveal a “road map” outlining how lockdown steps might be eased in the coming week.
