According to statistics released by the UK National Bureau of Statistics on the 30th local time, the death rate in England was the highest in Europe before mid-June.
Since the outbreak of Covid-19 in Europe, England has been the hardest-hit area. Wales and Northern Ireland in the United Kingdom were also the worst-hit areas.
Statistics show that in terms of Covid-19 pneumonia epidemic, the spread of the UK exceeds other countries. Seven of the 15 cities with the largest increase in mortality are in the United Kingdom, and Birmingham has the highest mortality rate in the United Kingdom.
Regarding this statistical result, British Prime Minister Johnson said that the government has made great progress in reducing mortality. The shadow health minister of the Labor Party, Ashworth, said that we can no longer hide the fact that the government has not properly responded to this crisis. We need to learn from our mistakes as soon as possible.
