It is the delta variant that is pushing up the numbers. With luck European countries will make a better fist of keeping it at bay than we have.

It would appear to be perfectly possible. The number of hospital admissions is perhaps a better guide - do we have those figures (per 100,000 of population) for other countries?

I am hoping that someone more knowledgeable than me can explain if it is because we are testing more that our cases are so high.

Many are asymptotic so without taking a test would carry on as normal, with the chance of infecting others?

Also cannot find any definitive data regarding false positives.
