Its basically a modellers guess, and from what they were talking about the other day in terms of antibody testing unlikely to be accurate unfortunately. Spain have said their level of antibodies is around 5% of the population and one of the advisers said it was about 4% here.
I hope the modellers are right but I would be very sceptical.
 
There is some dispute on that figure it seems
The Department for Health and Social Care has confirmed a further 428 deaths have been reported in the past 24 hours.

The daily update also said that there were 126,064 tests but only 71,644 people were tested as of 9am today

I know they changed the counting of tests a couple of days before target day to get the number across the line for hancock,counting tests as they put then in the post is sneaky,they have no idea if the home tests will be done properly and get a proper usable sample,i take the daily test number very skeptically
