The percentages of the U.K. population are 0.028% for those confirmed and 0.0017% for deaths.
On the latter, and I’m no statistician, but am I right in interpreting the attached figures from Public Health England?
Table 1 appears to suggest that, in the last week, there were no ‘excess deaths’ over and above the number that would usually be expected.
