More than half of England is now in the strictest form of local lockdown after London and parts of Essex and Hertfordshire joined swathes of the north in Tier 3.
In total 10.8million extra people have gone into Tier 3 as of 12.01am on Wednesday 16 December.
If no areas in the north and Midlands get knocked back down to Tier 2 later this week, there will be 34.2million people in Tier 3 in total - well over half of England.
The new arrangements took effect on December 2 after England’s blanket lockdown ended. Restrictions have been tightened after Government scientific advisers warned that previous measures had not been effective enough.
