It is too soon to know if the rise is linked to the latest variant BA.2.86.
Covid-19 hospital admissions in England are running at their highest rate for three months, in the latest sign the virus could be becoming more prevalent – though the figures remain well below levels seen earlier this year.
It is too soon to know whether the recent rise in admissions is linked to the latest Omicron variant of the virus, BA.2.86, which was first identified in the UK on August 18. A number of Omicron subvariants of Covid-19 are currently estimated to be in circulation in the UK, with XBB.1.16 likely to be the most prevalent, UKHSA data suggests.
“While case rates have continued to rise, rates remain low overall, and we will continue to monitor them closely.” In the absence of more comprehensive figures, hospital admissions can offer a guide to changes in the level of coronavirus in circulation.
