Official figures report that Southwark currently has 368 cases of covid-19, the highest in London and fifth highest in the UK as a whole, behind Sheffield (428), Glasgow (449), Hampshire (498) and Birmingham (578). The neighbouring London borough of Lambeth is similarly hard-hit, with 366 cases, sixth-highest in the UK.
