Today's figures come a day after Boris Johnson announced England would be plunged into a second lockdown for a month.
People will be ordered to stay at home while pubs, restaurants, hairdressers, gyms and non-essential shops must shut.
The Prime Minister made a Saturday night statement to the nation more than a month after his scientific experts called for a time-limited shutdown.
The lockdown will begin at 12.01am on Thursday 5 November, subject to Parliamentary approval.
It will end on Wednesday 2 December, when the government seek to ease the new restrictions on a local and regional basis, according to the latest data and trends at the time.
The lockdown will be subject to a debate and a vote in the House of Commons which is likely on Wednesday.
The introduction of national restrictions marks a dramatic shift in Government policy, as the Prime Minister has until now resisted pressure to reintroduce nationwide restrictions.
