Britain recorded another 29,612 coronavirus cases today - a 1.5 per cent increase from last Sunday's 29,173.
The death figure stayed exactly the same - 56 for both today and last Sunday.
But Government figures for the total number of cases over the last seven days reveals a 17.7% drop in cases - with the figure for this week standing at 207,368, a decrease of 44,643 from the previous week.
There were 1,003 deaths in total over the last seven days however, representing an increase of 32 (3.3%) when compared to the week prior.
The figures come as booster jab invites are being sent out to more than a million people to 'strengthen the wall of defence' against coronavirus created by vaccines.
People will receive texts from Monday, while letters will be sent to those who are eligible later in the week, NHS England said.
