Daily modelled estimates produced by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) showed around 9.5 per cent of Londoners had Covid-19 as of Sunday, within a 95pc confidence interval of 8.43pc to 10.69pc.
The figures came a day after Britain recorded a record number of new coronavirus cases as the Omicron variant swept across the country, with the daily tally reaching 119,789 from 106,122 a day earlier.
