There were 4368 cases recorded in the past 24 hrs- the highest on a Monday since April 20 - while the death toll was 11, the Department of Health said.
This on a day in which Sir Patrick vallance said infections could reach up to 50,000 by mid october if cases continue to double every seven days, resulting in 200 deaths a day a month later.
However, the Chief Scientific Adviser offered some hope by raising the possibility of "small amounts" of vaccines being made available for certain groups by the end of the year.
Rising infections have raised the spectre of nationwide lockdown measures with large swathes of the Midlands and northern England now covered by restrictions.
