Study shows that the highest number of cases recorded was over 200,000 cases in the UK, however recently them numbers have went down due to the amount of people constantly testing, therefore it may have already peaked, but this isn’t over for the UK.
There may be another wave that will peak past the 200,00o mark and this may happen in the coming years, however there has been a vaccine developing and could solve the problems of Omicron in the near future.
