WARSAW (Reuters) - Poland is seeing the beginning of a third wave of coronavirus infections, a health ministry spokesman said on Friday, as the country posted a large week-on-week increase in daily cases.
... “We are at the beginning of the third wave, it is not as dynamic as in Slovakia or the Czech Republic..., but unfortunately we are observing this upward trend,” Wojciech Andrusiewicz told reporters. “Week-to-week we unfortunately see a 20% growth trend.”
He added that around 10% of COVID-19 cases in Poland were now the British variant.
