Earlier on Friday, Public Health England (PHE) said the Delta variant first identified in India now accounts for almost all of Britain’s Coronavirus cases.British Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, had on Monday announced a four-week delay to the final step of England’s roadmap out of COVID-19 restrictions until July 19, amid a surge in cases of the Delta variant.New data published this week by Public Health England showed the AstraZeneca vaccine is 92 per cent effective against hospitalisation from the Delta variant after two doses, and the Pfizer vaccine is 96 per cent effective against hospitalisation after two doses.More than 42.4 million people had been given the first jab of the Coronavirus vaccine while more than 30.8 million people have been fully vaccinated with a second dose, according to the latest official figures.Experts have warned that Coronavirus may continue to evolve for years to come, and eventually it is likely, current vaccines will fail to protect against transmission, infection, or even against disease caused by newer variants.To bring life back to normal, countries such as Britain, China, Russia, the United States as well as the European Union have been racing against time to roll out Coronavirus vaccines.Britain Records 10,476 Fresh Covid-19 Cases in 24 Hours
